100% RO water CalMag problem

Organic can be done different ways. Buy it, make your own, or a sterile medium and organic nutes. Truth be told, unless you process and harvest your own, you don't know what you are really getting.
I´ll do my best. I think next round I maybe switch, I have a lot of time currently.

I've been to a few countries, the USA ranks about 4th for me as far as countries go, but I like my guns lol, so here I am. That, and they make it pretty expensive to leave, as you get taxed by both countries unless you denounce citizenship. Fucking legal jockeys.
I really think living in the US is very different... But I could be wrong, don´t really know.
I just love the vibe the people AND dream about going into a dispensary :D!!!
But you get taxed... That sucks!
I´d love to go to the US for 1 year for example. I would love to learn speaking fluently. And a good grammar:D!

Cheers

Wo wohnst du? I did a bunch of work in germany. i loved it there. awesome food, probably best beer in the world (maybe belgium?), autobahn, etc.

i probably spent the most time in Paderborn. i'd drive into Amsterdam every friday and spend the weekend.

yes. for soil i'd go for maybe 4 to 8 mL per gallon range. depends what EC range you normally feed at.
Interesting man! Thank you. I have 240W 4 single hanging Cree CXB3590 LEDs. I think 0.3-0.4 EC would be fine?

something about your aquarium mineral comment has me worried about pH. fish don't like pH levels that cannabis does. most rivers are around neutral pH 7.0 i think your pH is off which is causing your deficiencies that you are seeing.
I fill my tank with RO water, add the aquarium remineral / CalMag and let the water sit for 1 day.
It´s always between 6.6-6.8 I think. Before watering, I pH down to 6.5 with GHE pH down.
The deficiency appeared the first time. I just used RO and CalMag to 0.3EC this round. All other grows I successfully growed with aquarium remineralize.
But I wanted to change my Ca and Mg values (Aquarium remineralize just has 25 mg/L Ca and 6mg/L Mg...) so I used CalMag.

what's 1, 2 and 3?
i like my guns too (legal disclaimer: i dont' own any guns personally but my friend does)
3. Uganda. Sounds strange but it's beautiful and reminds me of the Wild West in a few ways.

2. Germany. You think you've seen country... Absolutely gorgeous and CLEAN.

1. Canada. Mostly the same reasons as Germany, except I don't care for the French lol just kidding, except it has way less people.

Haha nice man! Ich wohne in Bayern Nürnberg (Bavaria). But bavaria has very hard drug laws. So risky to grow here :(...

probably best beer in the world
Most german would say yes. It is really nice but I love corona the most:lol:

Guess it depends on what you like.

You don't do too bad now for it not being your first language. I can only speak English and partials of Russian, Arabic, Spanish, and French. None of which I could get by on haha.

i would check on the GH website. look at the floranova feed chart for soil recommends. i would think higher maybe around 1.0EC? for feed, water, water, water, feed, water , water schedule.

I know what you mean!

But you know what I don´t like about germany? I think german people are not that nice and kind as for example american.

i'd say US first, New Zealand second for beauty alone, but yes on Germany. i used to do a lot of work there: from south to west to north to east. all beautiful.

Canada is nice but too restrictive. my "friend" wants to bring his AK and drum mags up there.

Never been to New Zealand, so I wouldn't know. I would love to go, always been a dream to go walkabout in the outback... Maybe someday. Don't know if I'd come back though lol.

Also, that would be interesting to try and pass through border security lol.

maybe in bigger cities for lack of friendliness. but i've done work in small village where the locals would go out of their way to help you. along the Mosel where each village was just better than the next.

Yeah, different cultures are simply interesting. That´s why I used to travel a lot last year... Low budget, very stressfull but I learned many things!
That's how I see it as well. I like Chinese medicine, Japanese discipline, Russian aggression, German culture, Aussie relaxation, Ugandan kindness, Iraqi hospitality, and US guns and whiskey haha.

I don´t know man... I think it depends. My mum moved to a small village some just wait to complain.

But of course, germany is a nice country and relaxed to live imo. You have good chances to success!

the thing with the US is that it is so large. unless you take 4 weeks at a minimum, you won't be able to get a good feel for it. some areas are much more friendly than others. some people wont' even look you in the eye, some will invite you to their house for dinner.

Yes you´re right. It´s impossible to really understand this in 4 weeks holiday.

Add 1/4 tsp epsom salt per gallon. I use Cree CXB3590 as well.
Nice, but why epsom salt as it´s a Ca deficiency?
