You stop foliar, not cal/mag. A lot of people stop or diminish cal/mag supplements because of the nitrogen. If your growing in coco try supplementing with epsom salts for mag and use calimagic every 3 to 5 days till you flush. Plants need calcium throughout their life cycle. But you can stop ca altogether and just use epsom.

I Have a similar question. My ppms are at 1000 w/out calmag.(1200-1450 with)
Using heavy/Aptus.
Is it recommended to pull out cal mag altogether ? Or should I take the above advice like Mr.xagain said and also just feed calmag every 3-5days? I'm at 5ml per gal of A &B Or should I keep the additives static and pull my base lower to make room for cal mag?

It all depends, are you growing in coco ? What stage of flowering are you in ? 1250, 1450 until week 4 is fine. Then id drop in increments till week 6. The strain and finishing time is a factor to consider aswell if your growing a 11 to 12 week strain you should adapt accordingly. Ps... remember to flush ! Best of luck.

Cal- Mag should be used in veg stage only ans with caution, as for foliage feeding it dies help,prevent nutrient lock-out but should be only done in veg stage also (Extreme Gardening has a very good cal-mag foliage feed product )(they have a sample pack)

The Heavy16 prime has calcium and magnesium . So technically you don't have to suppliment once you stop foliar.

Best of luck.

Sorry my stupid mistake - foliage feeding should be done 1 x per week at most or at least in week 4 of veg (make sure you don't over do it) also make sure you spray the undersides of the leaves that is were the up-take - take place thru it's (plant's) "stoma's"
