but i don't think its a cal mag issue . to me it looks like a magnesium deficiency .I grow with the exact same light. I also found my plants demand a lot of cal-mag but I'm using mega crop version 1. From what others have said making the switch to led is the demand for cal mag is increased So i would say it's normal and just supplement.
Cal mag is usually calcium bicarbonate and magnesium sulfate. There is debate over what ratios are needed using a cal mag I think are usually 5-1 ratio. The calcium bicarbonate will help buffer the pH and keep it from crashing. That's why I suggested adding cal mag. It helps buffer and if you feel cal-mag ratios are important it covers you there too. Personally I like to keep a 5-1 ratiobut i don't think its a cal mag issue . to me it looks like a magnesium deficiency .
someone told me to use mag-amped. very acidic crashed my Ph. he said to simply Ph up.to me that doesn't seem right in the UC?

Calimagic is calcium carbonate and magnesium sulfate and iron.I also have several different individual nutes I sometimes use. But not going to recommend it to people. Yes some cal-mag uses calcium nitrate. I should have provided that info also since not all cal-mag are the sameI thought most “ calmag”’s were calcium nitrate & magnesium sulfate and some iron ( depending brand )?
I switch (grow more flower cal/mag) to a non N BASED after 4th week for calcium & magnesium nutes . Previous rounds ( this is my 3rd time trying it ) if I kept trying to use cal/mag ( too much n after week 4) or when I tried r diff organics calcium based things, too slow even when I have it from the beg of flower . so why fuck around lol
5-1 ratio ? 5ml of cal mag to 1 gallon of water? i first started cal mag at 3ml per gal. today at lights off i sprayed with 1tsp per gallon of epsom salt.see what happensCal mag is usually calcium bicarbonate and magnesium sulfate.

No I mean the ratio of calcium to magnesium.5-1 ratio ? 5ml of cal mag to 1 gallon of water? i first started cal mag at 3ml per gal. today at lights off i sprayed with 1tsp per gallon of epsom salt.see what happens
Just to be clear that ratio is by ppm not by weight incase you are using dry nutesNo I mean the ratio of calcium to magnesium.
