Hi All,
I have been flowering Nivana Seed's ICE for almost 60 days now. From about day 20 I have been seeing a Calcium and Magnesium deficiency. From what I have read about the strain is that it is a nutrient hog. Eventually the deficiency spread to an overall deficiency because I was not giving her enough nutrients. I corrected the overall deficiency with more nutrients but the calcium and magnesium deficiency is still there. I have another in early flower too and I want to try and avoid these deficiencies.
General Info
Nutrients: BC Boost & BC Bloom(1500 ppm), Awesome Blossom, Purple Maxx, Sugar Daddy, and CalMag.
Initial Water pH: 6.5
Growing Medium: Soil
Current Soil pH: ~8 (just found out last night and am attempting to fix. I do not adjust my fertilizer solution so I am assuming its a little basic).
Light: 600 w hps
From what I have read it seems that having acidic soil would cause a inability for the roots to uptake calcium and magnesium but does it go the other direction as well?
Any other suggestions on keeping the next plant on track would be much appreciated.
Cheers
PS I will post some pictures tonight.
