Just mix it in water and water the plant with it. I water with calmag regularly. I wouldn't spray anything on buds. I'm about week 4 now. I feed calmag regularly. Every few feedings just to keep the levels up. I think plants want more calcium in flower. Epsom is straight magnesium. So if you are 100% sure it's mag deficiency you can use that. Other than that I'd give a calmag feeding not foliar.
I water it in a tablespoon per week for my outdoor plants,it seems to keep the deficiencies in check for me.
WINNER!! you Sir, are absolutely correct!Thats not mag deficiency in the pics, thats calcium def.
What you spraying? The residue on buds doesn't affect your flavor?I foliar feed (mist) right up to my 2nd week before harvest, but then that's just me.
Think it's the nitrate in cal/mag nitNPK Industries says not to foliar with Ca or CaMg. Check out their YT tutorials
You've got 35% perlite which means you're 35% hydro 5.9-6.4 would likely be ideal in that mix. Make sure your meter is calibrated and back up your reading with a second trusted measuring device like say strips. 99% of nute deficiencies newer growers encounter aren't because of lack of anything. I guarantee every single macro/micro nute required by your plants is in the combination of salts you're throwing at them. It's just out of balance, be it ph or a salt build up. Too much of one salt interferes w another's uptake and a deficiency results. Getting everything back in check with heavy runoff of a nicely balanced mixture will get you back in check fastest. Frequent runoff helps keep imbalances from accumulating as plants will never use everything you give them, what remains accumulates causing imbalances. 1200 ppm is just unnecessary....Foliar feeds would be a bandaid to your situation not a fix. Don't get me wrong foliar feeds are great before bud set but anything you spray on buds will stay there. It is by no means all taken up and residue will remain. I'd prefer not to smoke calcium nitrate salt. Plus your problem likely resides in your medium. Good luck :)Some additional info: I forgot to pH my water first feed of flower, I know that my non pHed nute feed is 5.9-6.0 so pH was a bit low for soil to start off. I normally pH my nute feed to 6.5.
