That could be a great tip for me. I have hard water here. Starts at 250 ppm. Lots of calcium in it. So....been wondering if i actually need more...
If i add. 5ml per gallon i bring the water up to 450ppm.
Yup this may be your problem, if you're using tap water at 250 and then add cal mag at 5ml a gal. That would be an overload on calcium and or mag and it will throw off phosphorus.
Your plants have a unhealthy dark green tone, leaves look like they are struggling to get food and are holding water. Purple stems as well. I had all these issues right now, just starting to get it to turn around.
I ditched my tap water even though I was cutting it 72/25 with RO water. It's all 100% RO now. Try increasing your base nutes next time instead of adding cal mag.
It's not the cobs man it's growers error almost always lol
