- How and When to Use Cal-mag for Growing Cannabis
Growing cannabis is a lot of fun until your plants start dying without any rhyme or reason.
Well, there certainly is a reason, but you may not see it first. Moreover, this can be very frustrating, especially if you’ve cared for the plants like they are your own children. Among the many problems facing plants, cannabis nutrient deficiencies are the most common and can end up causing nutrient lockout.
What is Cal-mag and how can we use it in cannabis growth and when is the Right time to use it?”
Some of you may be thinking about Cal-mag and why should you need to use it for cannabis!
Knowing that your plant has a nutrient deficiency is essential for maintaining a healthy crop because cannabis plants need nutrients to develop the branches, leaves and further along into their growth cycle, the buds.
A nutrient deficiency occurs when your plants don’t get enough food, become stressed and can be more susceptible to bugs, mold, and diseases which can reduce the yields and ultimately kill your plants. These nutrient deficiencies often present in the leaves, such as yellowing, burnt tips, and in more serious cases, crispy and burnt leaves.
it’s important to know that a nutrient deficiency is not only caused by underfeeding but also due to improper pH levels and should not be confused with nutrient toxicity, which is caused by excessive feeding.
Cal-mag is nothing more than a supplement of Calcium and magnesium and other nutrients, cal-mag deficiency often happen together in plants. This is why most growers deal with cal mag deficiency at some point. The easiest way to deal with cal mag deficiency is to add good quality composite to the soil.
You can add garden lime, crushed eggshells, dolomite, and even fish meal to enhance the quality of your soil. And of course you can Use a Cal-Mag Supplement directly.
So you can mix Cal-mag with your normal nutrients solution that you can store in gallon of water.
The reason of using cal-mag is to fulfill the requirement of minerals to plant. If we talk about the dosage of Cal-Mag then the exact dosage would be 3-5 ml per gallon of water, this 5ml will be equal to one teaspoon so for 5 gallons it will be 20-25ml of Cal-Mag.
5ml will be the initial dosage amount for soil if you have existing calcium and magnesium deficiency in your plants. But if you want to use it as a preventive measure then you need to start with 1-1.5ml per gallon.
If using a soilless medium such as coco coir, then it’s a good idea to load up on the Cal-Mag prior to transplanting your established clone or seed. Start with 5 mL/gallon for the first few watering’s, then reverse back to 1-1.5 mL/gallon thereafter.
But when should you use cal-mag?
If you are experiencing calcium magnesium deficiencies then we recommend not waiting, applying 1 or 2ml of cal-mag per gallon of water and pouring straight to your plants. the ideal time of using cal-mag is in day time or after the lights turn on, Because during the day the movement of water is quicker than at night.
The best way to resolve nutrient issues with cannabis is to catch them early. But it’s even better to prevent likely issues outright, which is why you should use a light dose of Cal-Mag throughout your grows
So, in summary the starting dosage of cal-mag should be 1-3 ml/gallon as a preventive measure. And for most growers the ideal time of watering is just before the rising of sun. Because plant will stay in a healthier environment all day long.

I have been growing for 5 years. This year I have been using 5ml of cal-mag per gallon throughout the growing season. I’m now in the 4th week of flowering. All 6 plants are Granddaddy Purple. They are all very healthy and happy. This is my best grow yet. I’m not sure if it’s the cal-mag, but I am being very precise about the fertilizer and pH. Growing in 10 gallon cloth bags in Lucky Dog soil.
Short and Sweet ! Always good contents
I am new to growing. Thank goodness I have my brothers quidance to help me. This was the very first item on my list to buy. So glad I did.
Any recommendations? Any brand? How do you feed it? How successful is it?
Low dose every week
Don't take any advice from this channel.
Jesus loves you all, God Bless✝️🍃
@@ileene666yes my recommendation is Jesus Christ and general hydroponics brand flora series 3 part nutrients. Be sure to mix correctly micro nutes first, then the other ones. You're also going to need calmag. I recommend the general hydroponics calimagic. Now when mixing calmag it has to go in before micro nutes and then the micro and so on. Otherwise you can cause a nutrient lockout. Then I recommend following the feeding mixture recommended on bottled but for cannabis do it in half of what it says or you might get nutrient burn because it runs a little hot. Don't forget to get some ph up and down with a ph tester. It's a mandatory tool if growing cannabis and using nutrients in coco coir or hydro. You want to check your pH in the water/fertilizer because it has to be between 5.5-6.5 but for the roots to suck up nutes and science if horticulture in snit. This is the basics .
Love the info on ur channel✌️👍🍀🇮🇪. At the moment I'm growin a Purple Punch in DWC, just started her 7th week into flower😁💞. I use 4ml Cal-Mag per gallon, not much of a variation in amount, depending on growth stage.
How many times a week?
@@3rdwrldkid everytime I feed it.
Wish you would have put some live pictures of plants with cal mag def. So we could see what’s happening to the plant during that time.
You can find pictures and videos over internet like we did back in the day
Magnesium deficiency ALWAYS presents itself on older leaves as interveinal chlorosis. If your lowers are green and normal and the new leaves are discolored DO NOT APPLY CAL-MAG! Your issues are a nutrient imbalance! Best way to combat this issue is frequent low ec doses of a balanced NPK and micronutrient solutions. Cal-mag can and will lock out phosphates and discolor everything. Avoid avoid avoid using cal-mag because you heard on the DGC or Mr Grow it, and always avoid pidgeons 420. Cal-mag IS ONLY HELPFUL when calcium and magnesium are deficient. Seriously, if you're looking to grow healthy weed, get educated on plant nutrition. The popular crowd is usually wrong!!!
🙏🔑✌️🇮🇱
I use an Ro system for my water because my tap is hard, I add 5 mL of Cal mag to my nutrients with every feeding, I even added to the days in between feeds when I water.
5ml per gallon?
how many increase in your EC?
If you use RO Water, you get 0.0 EC... 5ml in 3.78L i think its a litle too muchhh LOL
@@gparadisept8976I use half oz. To 6 gallons
We use cal/mag in tap water nute feed at 10ml/10L as the regular dose. Up to 20ml/10L and bump up pH at first signs of deficiency. RO water would run at 20ml/10L or more as standard. Often it seems strain dependent, some preferring higher or lower cal/mag for some reason
Use a lil les an u wont never have a problem with it ghat how i use it an never haave a problem no yello on my leafs at all green branchs trunk an all healthy as it gets
Thank you! I was having an issue and this described it perfectly.
I use Advanced Nutrients PH Perfect nutrients with Advanced Nutrients Sensi Cal-Mag extra. Works just fine. I love how the level of PH stays close to 6-6.3 and I don't have to check it. Day 27 after the seed popped up, girls look massive after some nice LST. I recommend PH Perfect series to everyone, and use Air pot / fabric pot's with CO2 bags.
thnx for sharing, I made co2 bag, using fabric pots, got 2 sprouted babies now, 3 more seeds put in soil a day ago. so how often you use cal mag for Prevention of calcium magnes defic.? I plan to use dolomite limestome, I also give a bit of alfalfa I mix with water, every second or third watering
Can I ask what was your EC BEFORE planting your seed into your medium please? I've been told 0.1 and some say 1.8 EC and did you add nutrients as well as cal mag? Or lol
You should only use it if you need to use and have a deficiency. Using it to control PH is very bad practice and also pointlessly raising your EC.
Thank you this is really helpful, no one presents deficiencies that way when it comes to figuring out the problem is cal-mag, but this looks like my deficiencies exactly. crispy leaves that seem like underwatering but in humid soil, burnt tips that looks like the plant is dying, I just got my coco a and b today gonna see if it brings them back to health for sure :D I'm using a mix of light soil mix and coco coir, i amended it with some organic nutrients and worm castings, but i feel cal mag is the one missing ingredient for a perfect ecosystem.
I always collect 5-10 eggshells and put them dried in the blender. I mix the powder into my soil. I have never had a Cal-Mag deficiency in my plants.
Great information
I water everyday. I use a splash or hint of this and a big glass of water. Looks good so far. I’m in flower on one plant Transplanted to a 5 gal
Other than calcium and magnesium do u get anything extra from diy process like micro nutes ?
Such a important content 👏
Needed this thanks for the information ☺️
🙏
most soil ammendments recommend 5ml but half that is enough and feed 24 per week
Nice one
My additive stop using Cal-mag and bottle nutrient all together. Instead use organic amendments like espoma garden tone 344 which has every micro and macronutrients available and the bacteria to break it down and help regulate the uptake of these nutrients. Otherwise you will be giving your plant Cal-mag which is laced with nitrogen that it didn't need on top of that regardless of the nutrient used. When a plant encounters synthetic nutrients they uptake them regardless if they need them or not. Then they get nutrient lock out and nitrogen toxicity as a result. When all they needed at the time was magnesium sulfate found in Epsom salt and a 1/2 in one gallon of water will do the trick. Or if you need just calcium. Then use egg shells ground into a powder in a blender or coffee grinder. Then let them steep in a small amount of boiling water for an hour. Then let it rest and cool overnight. The next day you can apply it. But do not do something even more stupid like using vinegar to draw out the calcium. Because vinegar is also a substitute for ph down and only a few drops can reduce a healthy soil ph of 6.4 to 4 or less in no time at all. That's also another reason to go full organic soil amendments in combination with GreatWhite or recharge. Using soil microbes and mycholrizal fungi and trichoderma bacteria blend. Will regulate the soil ph levels and the nutrient uptake. That's why I'm truly giving you the very best way to grow organic.
@Johnny Santana well kelp is highest in potassium levels out of all other things. In nitrogen and phosphorus it's typically low, unless you intentionally buy a product that's high in nitrogen. Though I know this is not your question I just wanted to let you know that is generally high in potassium and in aminoacids and trace minerals. As for magnesium or calcium I beg to differ on it being that effective if at all in those areas.
On the other hand since kelp is high in aminoacids, enzymes, and trace minerals. The combination and especially the enzymes will help your plant use its nutrients more effectively. Or rather be it enzymes and aminoacids will speed up growth all together. Since the aminoacids and enzymes are what your plants use to uptake nutrients. However having a full organic soil with mycholrizal fungi and bacteria blend will best serve your plants. Since the rizosphere feeds the roots directly as the plant exchanges its sugars at night. At night the plant sends down sugars to feed the microbes and mycholrizal fungi. In turn the mycholrizal fungi and bacteria blend work together to give your plants food during the day. Such as it is with magnesium and calcium.
@Johnny Santana I appreciate the kind words, however at a distance and in person. Often times, a friend is a ear and I just do my best to let my heart guide me to helping others who are just as insightful as I am. With knowledge alone, comes not wisdom. Unless we combine faith with reason from the heart let all things flow evenly. When head and hands meet and go to work. They must be mediated by the heart. The great judgement of faith and reason and back again is the heart and from the heart when these two pillars meet and become one the rest will fall into place and thus knowledge becomes wisdom.
THNX FOR KEEPING IT TRILL 💯💢🥦
How often to give cal mag?
You'd have a hard time getting nitrogen lock out from using call mag
Ordered now
Its actually just before lights come on coz mag is responsible for the splitting of light in to atp
If using RO, I bring my ppms to 150-200 (500 scale) then add nutes. From clone to flush. I had so many issues prior to using calmag. Just watch the nitrogen level of any calmag you buy. Try to find 1-0-0. That’s what worked…for me using high pressure arroponics
Same situation for me. This is great advice.
100L of hard water recipe
Mix
90L RO
10L declorinated tap water
Wait 30 minutes,
Check ec
Raise ec to 0.4 using calmag
Leave for 30 minutes
Check ec
Ph adjusted to 5.5 veg
Ph 5.8 flower
Its that frickin easy 👌🏼
Canna calmag agent has only half the nitrogen, compared to most, and no potassium
@@madmanmoz6365
Veg should be 6-6.3 pH
Bloom from 5.7-6 depending on variety
So forgot to flip girls are higher as my 5x5 tent light cant go any higher because of where i live yellowing starting to show up with try some calmag now see if it cheerrs then up with 3ml per gallon
I use calmag since begining. 0,3 ml per 1 liter water and grow with soil
Gaia green rock dust blend 👌🏼
It also prevents blossom end rot in tomatoes.
Okay for some reason I didn't think I should use Cal-Mag during Flowering.. Now I know I can lol
Autoflower, Soil: So I water (tap after 48 hours) 2 quart per 5 gallon soil every other day. I was told to stop using: (cal_mag 2ml/micro 2/grow 1/bloom 3) Per gallon. I started a week ago because of yellowing/spotting/drying leaves. So I increased ph watering at 7ph, but runoff is still around 4ph after one week. When I test for runoff I add more water into the soil about 15 min after the first 2 quart using a clean bucket. I notice that the runoff looks almost dark yellow (like tea). Then I take that water into a cup and test which it shows at 4ph (way too low!!!). I look this up and some say to use: Dolomitic Lime 6 teaspoons per gallon. I look up Dolomitic Lime and that only comes in "Pulverized Dolomitic Lime" which is hard to dissolve in water? Showing pictures is not going to do anything because the plants are like I mentioned: Yellow/spotting/drying, all this started during flowering. Flowering started about 3 weeks ago with no sign of budding. Should I increase the calmag to 5 ml per gallon and only use that in the water, making sure that ph is around 7? Please help. Thank You!
I know it's probably too late but you could have flushed the plants with the right pH water until the soil became balance, and once the soil is balanced give them a feeding so they will have something in the soil. Then when the soil dries out resume regular feeding and watering
@@BileDuctBalderdash Actually, the plants turned out great! I got more than an ounce on each plant! And top quality smoke (high grade). I was thinking the same: why not just keep flushing. I am on my second growing now, this time using LST. Just water, Maybe use bloom when they start to flower.
@@MikeSmith-wr9hg that's great I wish you the best and I hope all of your flowers swells to its potential. Just keep growing
Homie that is way too much water. Are you trying to drown them? And why were you told to stop using nutrients? Also tap water is horrible for your plants. There seems to be a lot wrong with your recommendations
Exactly what I was thinking
I just started using cal mag and I am also going to add grow & bloom nutrients. What is the time frame after adding cal-mag can I use the bloom & grow?
You can mix them all together, just make sure your Ph is close to 6-6.3..
I use Advanced Nutrients Ph Perfect series, so what ever I add to the water the Ph stays at perfect level.
You don't need it straight away, I add it normally just before pre-flower 1time and If I need more I do it next week another time.
You don't use it all the time...
@FIN86fi
In soil yes
In Coco you use it every watering
So I'm a new grower first time growing canibis I understood that you could give this plant this product at anytime 🤨
Anybody ever convert to half gal’s? I don’t got buckets yet, but I have half gallon mason jars
Good morning
I am totally new I have pre buffered pre washed coco coir. Can I ask what should the EC be before I plant my germinated seed? And do you add your liquid nutes then too or wait for 1 week before feeding them nutrients?
How did you go?
400/0.4 EC is safe to plant in to
So I have yellowing leaves. I started with 5ml/gal. How often should I be feeding them the cal-mag after it's initial dose should I drop it to 1ml/gal every time after this
No, Cal-mag is something you DONT use all the time. 1ml per Litre and if you need then the next week the same. After that you can go without, maybe add 0,5ml/ Litre at times.
@@FIN86fiin soil yes
With hydroponics and Coco you do need it always
For magnesium deficiency ( the yellow leaves ) treat the plant with Epsom salts ( magnesium sulfate) instead
And for the calcium, you can do a crushed eggshell mixed with vinegar solution.
Espom salt (magnesium)and egg shells+vinegar (calcium). Never needed to buy calmag.
50ml calcium / 1 TSP salt / 10L of water. Water every 5-7 days or when they need it
If you are using cal/mag as a preventative measure do you use it every time you feed or like once a week?
Did you ever get awnser? Curious myself if 8 should use it every time I water or not
I grow in coco and use a half dose with every feed
Yeah same as me mate little bit goes a long way too healthy plant
In soil, occasionally
In hydro or Coco, constantly
Can cal mag be used in first four weeks(stretch) of flower?
From seed until harvest
I made my own cal mag recipe but have no idea on the measurements I should use considering it is not a very potent strength and has been diluted with water (crushed/baked egg shells, Epsom salt, 1/3 white vinegar and 2/3 water) in a 2L bottle.
I know vinegar is very high in acid and I don't want to kill my babies, have I diluted it enough???
The obvious idea is to ph test it. Hope it works out for you
most cal-mag supplements come mixed in Nitric Acid so are always very acidic anyway
So I should use cal mag every time I water? Or every other watering
Not if you have amended you soil already and are top dressing more nutes every month.
@@alphaomega8373 ahhhh ok I understand now
High from Puerto Rico

@@TheCannabisExperts my master..thanks sou much...
How high?
Hi
can u use calmag in the flower stage...
Using it the right way an not puting alot in ur water wont harm thats how i use it i just throw a bet les then what it says with the food an i never had a problem she ben green an healthy
It would be fun if this were all in, ooh, say metric. In some perverted parts of the world, there is the U.S. gallon, the Imperial gallon, and this new fangled Metric scale. Perhaps not at this level, but with some mixtures, expressing them as a ratio can be a bit more universal. This comment is just to keep you guys on your toes. The price being charged for the information however, can not be beat!
Two tips that as a lifetime coco coir grower I've found have helped me immensely and ensure healthy growth/bloom every time.
1. Soak/buffer your coco before you transplant your seedling in. Cannot stress how important this is. I use a bin with 30L or so of calmag mixed as per the manufacturers recommendation and soak it for 24 hours. Give it a thorough rinse with 9L or so of more calmag just to remove any build up and you're good to transplant.
2. If you find you didn't soak it long enough or calmag deficiencies are starting to show, you can use it as a foliar spray in the morning and evening to rapidly address the deficiency.
Happy growing!
Just use buffered coco
The cheap stuff isn't worth it
Do we use it all the life span of the plant, rocket up until harvest?
Yes
How is it that I have never needed to use extra Cal Mag for decades but the internet seems to think I should be using it?
Please Explain? As far as I see it, It is only for very rare occasions when it is required.
Because you grow in soil, and not hydroponics
How much did you learn in all those decades?
Do I use calmag every watering or every other watering like with other nutrients?
Every other day I di food 1 day cal mag next,,👌😎
@@Toads-pt2su thanks my man
You forgot to mention using banana peel cut up and put it in what you are going to feed with leave it in PHed water with a air stone for 24 to 48 hours before use, works for roses or really any plant.
Do not try this tip in hydroponics
Sounds like a good way to get a fungus amongus.....
Forget the banana. xDDD
I use NPK industries cal-mag and it calls for 1/16-1/8 per gallon of water. I am dealing with a cal-mag deficient grow using Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil. It's frustrating the sh@t outta me. I'm still a novice but have had successful grows in the past using NPK Raw nutrients. Genetics and plants with tap roots are far easier to grow than clones in my opinion. I've only had nute deficient grows from cloned plants.
Try switching to Aurora 707 Roots Organic soil with FF nutrients. Ocean Forest seems too sandy. 2 parts 707/ 1 part perlite, plus nutes. And always mix in a few cups worm castings
@@moetimski9767 Thank you for the advice.
Do not use fox farm soils any of them. Super acidic and super dense in nutrients so they always lock out cause so many problems. That soil is listed as a go to I just don’t see why it’s terrible.
Watch your Ph too.
@@BillLarkinmusic Why not to use -Ph Perfect series? Advanced Nutrients
can you use cal mag in the seedling phase?
No
I use dolomite, it's cheap and works perfectly
Yeah, me too.
A full package lasts for years 😂😊
I’ve been cought twice with expired cal mag. No date seen ever on label so going to diy but would like feedback on how to do the micro nutes needed. Response requested. Thanx
Nutrients do not expire. Products are dated so that you buy more frequently.
Can i spray it to leaves? When in the night?
Of course
Is this added to every watering or just once a week?
If you are in soil, periodically
If hydroponics or Coco, every time
@grantsmith505 I've never needed to use it thus far I'm new to the growing experience
@@terrytwotoes3225
You are using soil obviously
It's more a hydroponic thing
Good luck
@@grantsmith505 👍
So if i use eggshells on soil when is the right time to put it into my soil? Like week 3 of flower?
Im no expert grower, just running two plants in a tent. But as far as I know, eggshells take quite awhile to break down and be available to the plants. Week 3 might only affect things right at the end, if even at all. And thats ifs its crushed to powder form. But Im sure there are those who know better on youtube. Id recommend much sooner though.
You'll want to get a faster acting product like Fox Farms Cal-Mag. It's easy to use but a little on the pricey side. Other companies make it too.
In RO water or well water?
Ro yes, well water probably not/maybe
Depends on the geography
8 ml per gal with LEDs tell week 6 of bud
Can you explain what a Cal Mag deficiency looks like?
Magnesium is yellowing, the browning and leaves dying young
Cal is crinkly leaves
They are two different issues
When do you stop using cal-mag? Flowering stage?
You need calmag especially in flower
Up until flush
I live in an area that has alkaline water so the pH gets to the point where magnesium can't be absorbed any more i just pH balance the water with bone meal because it's super high in phosphorus which is acidic
Gallons? Imperial or American? I don't understand why you mix metric mls and some random Gallons.
Don't over think it
Two words...stash blend
4 mins and not a single mention of what to look for
so as for a prevention, HOW OFTEN YOU GIVE CAL MAG, every watering or once a week or once a month? no such simple info nowhere, damn
I’m using a cheap cal-mag and it calls for 10ml a litre and I been giving it 20 every fed😂 haven’t had any problems as of YET
jesus christ wtf
holy smokes
I'm already using tap water, azomite, ground eggshells, epsom salts, and bio char, so I have no need to add calmag. There is no such thing as a calmag deficiency, calcium and magnesium are separate nutrients and both show deficiency differently. Calmag is not the answer to every issue. Proper watering and a super soil mix should eliminate the need for calmag unless you're running RO water or distilled. In hydro, aero, or an inert medium such as coco , rockwool, dwc, etc this is a totally different animal. If you're in soil do not run out and waste money on calmag unless you see a deficiency, which I've never had in decades of growing. Keeping your substrate at the proper ph is also hugely important to uptake of nutrients as well. I recommend 5.5 to 6.5 in veg and flower. 6.2 works for me in flower well. Chalk is almost entirely gypsum calcium as is drywall board if you're looking for cheap amendments. Diatomaceous earth is good for silica if you would like to add that cheaply. Calmag is a tiny amount of active ingredients and the rest is just water in a plastic bottle. Dolomite and gypsum lime as well as oyster shell calcium, azomite, calcium silicate, wood ash, bone meal, etc are all good sources of calcium for plants. Always check your other nutrients for calcium and magnesium content before adding any randomly. Calcium is good for many plant processes and also chelating some a well as balancing pH. Magnesium is necessary but a little goes a long way so don't overdo that either. A tiny amount of Epsom salts a few times during veg and in the initial soil mix will probably provide plenty of mag and sulfur for the entire grow.
just good old garden lime should do.... only certain brands of lime have decent amounts of mg
Where to buy calmag
Internet, dude.
He says use 5ml to start the FIRST couple times.. but then says that you should START with 1-2 ml then says START with 1-3 ml, doesn't he? 😮😢
Guess I'm the only 1 didn't get any questions answered w this video
My tap water has perfect calcium and magnesium
First 2 minutes is him repeating that nutrients are needed for plants...
Never used it.

Professional me please for I can’t see what they won’t let the💆♂️
A wise man once told me you can crush up anti acid tablets and feed them as a top dressing for deficiency.
Really?
@@giovannicardone3803 confirmed to be true
whats all this gallon business anyway?... very confusing
Epsom salt......on the cheap
I make my own calcium supplement with organic egg shells and Vinegar.
@@k2c3po01 Epsom salt is for magnesium, not calcium
Only 2 reasons you would use Calmag,
1 to treat a deficiency
2 to mix with RO water to bring ec to 0.4. This is added after 10 % of your water os declorinated tap water.
Other than these 2 things ypur nutrients will have enough cal and mag for your grow.
Dont be listening to these channels they will have you all confused and trying new stuff all the time because one channel says one thing and another channels will say another.
Good luck
Late response, but yeah, a lot of people make it way more complicated than it needs to be. Easy stuff. 3 important things.... 1, Get your heat and humidity right 2. Don't over-water 3. Get your ph right. Add a 4th if your growing photoperiods 4. No light leaks.
I use straight well water PH'd. I don't worry about calcium. I do use about a Tablespoon of epsom salts in my water after veg gets going. Couple scoops of nutes in the bloom stage and preflower. I build my own soils and amend that before planting. I will use calmag if I see a deficiency, but otherwise the bloom nutes have some in and my soil has some built in. I'm currently running three different strains in three different soils and nearing the finish line with no issues yet.
You obviously don't use coco

Calmag the fix all
It don’t fix TH-cam 😅
Please retract that statement. Cal-mag is the most hazardous bottle nutrient available. Because it comes loaded with 2% nitrogen and can often lead to nutrient lock out. When people do not know how or when to use it. As is often the case when magnesium is more often the problem, not calcium. Thus compounding the problem when you only ever needed a little more magnesium, but you just gave your plants more nitrogen and calcium they didn't need. That's the problem with bottled nutrients all together. Because they are synthetic and feed the roots directly instead of organic microbes and the rizosphere in nature that regulates the uptake of these nutrients. The plants in a synthetic nutrient system take up everything you put in the water or coco or God forbid you use bottles in soil. The cell walls will take up every bit of nutrients they find In a synthetic nutrient system. They will be full to bursting and your leaves will turn a dark green, the tips will burn, and regardless of the synthetic nutrients you use. The plant will have a nitrogen toxicity. Because it can sense the presence of extra nutrients and will begin to photosynthesize as much as it can to use up these nutrients to cure the swelling if you will of those cell walls. This in turn increases nitrogen production and thus more chlorophyll is produced as a result. This means greener and greener buds and especially in flower when growing the buds. Is all your plant can do to grow at all. But this will result in larfy buds that take ages to cure. That are high in THC but not much else, especially terpenes.
@@tgitsmydad2156 that's why you cut it of in week 5 of flower wen the plant stops growing and focusing on flower starts
@@potatofry1237 that's true, but see you know that but others do not. Which magnesium deficiency is often a problem in the flowering stage. Not to mention, the host of micro nutrients like zinc, copper, iron, manganese, and sulfur. Which some phenotypes can suffer from having a lack of and the combination of multiple micro nutrient deficiencies can often look like a Cal-mag issue. New growers are stumped and not knowing what to do or where to get these nutrients from. Is the biggest problem with bottled nutrients too. When cal-mag is the go too source for a deficiency.
@@tgitsmydad2156 not all calmag nutes contain nitrogen, if the brand used has an npk ratio then adjust feed as necessary. If anyone is finding calmag 'hazardous' their the hazzard!
Wtf is a gallon..😂
I know it’s two years old but I have to say…, it’s total BS….
First of all and most important is what kind of water you use, is it tap water or RO water, now and only now you can start to determine the dosage/amount, tap water has to be measured and analyzed what and how much is in it already, for RO water with a 0.0 EC it’s 2ml of CAL/MAG per Liter and you also have to add micro elements….
LMAO it’s either a calcium deficiency or a magnesium deficiency. No such thing as a Cal-mag deficiency. 😂
ml to gallons. lmao pick a metric. dont fuck about with this gallon bullshit, its not 1812
