I wonder wondering if anyone has event done the final flush with calmag? I read on some other forum that calcium and magnesium help the ash stay white when burned and that they flushed with it

He's referring to the old school hippy test to see if you fed enough magnesium to the plant. Product with not enough magnesium in it tends to not stay lit for long. White ash is a sign that enough mag is present in the flower.

OP.......please don't buy into the "flush" broscience. Taper your feed solutions down until you get to the last couple weeks then feed them a VERY weak solution. Like 250 - 300 ppm solution or even as little as 150 ppm.

I won’t flush but can I feed ph water + calmag as they fade?

You sure can. I water with Epsom salt and cal mag in tap water to the bitter end.
But I haven’t tested the alternative, so….

Why use both calmag and Epsom salt?

It seems to help me avoid deficiencies in Mg & Ca, and the sulfur MAY support terpene development. That’s what I’m told, anyway. In every gallon of water or feed mix, I add 3/4 tsp of Epsom salt + 2.5 ml of CaMg. These plants appear to be pretty happy, with 4 wks to go.

I start cutting calcium by 50% upon flip. P & K not N are needed as the plant fades
