4 week flower browning tips

i would run full dose of cal/mg and then see how much maxi you need to add to get to 600.
are you using calimagic by GH? that's my preferred cal/mg if i ever need it. i'm on well so got plenty of Ca and just add Mg via Epsom

It’s Remo nutrients can’t remember what the bottle is called. The full dose ends up being a really high ppm if I recall

even if you fed them for a day or 2 with just the cal/mg and water, they'd still be fine. then go back to some cal/mg along with the maxi.

its too bad you are in bloom or a foliar or 2 of cal/mg would probably fix them up.

I’ve foliar fed Epsom salts before. What’s your mix for cal mag foliar?

it's been forever. i'd say safe would be the max dose on the Remo bottle. probably even doubling that would be fine.

yep. give it time to soak in b4 lights off so you dont' get any mold issues. that would make a minor issue a major f'up.

There’s no chance I’m running to low a PPM?

You've gotten into all this on GHs website, right? You've noted their feed charts? There is one for DTW and another for recycling here:

So I’m right in the middle of the ppm for drain to waste. Question though how come the recirc ppm are so much higher?

But you are not draining to waste, you are recycling so why aren't you following that feed chart?

Regardless, you'd start lower and move higher as a best practice anyway, right? Watching the plants for a sign that you've gone too high? Some strains might prefer a stronger solution, others weaker, you need to figure this out for each strain you grow in your system. Someone may say they always run this number for an EC or another might say the feedchart is too strong or they always dance on Tuesday. What's any of that got to do with your system and your stain and your environment?

Small changes, and one change at a time, otherwise you won't know what is changing what.

You wrote that you are using well water. What is the pH and ppm of this water before you mix in your maxibloom. What is the pH and ppm of your runoff?

You add CalMag to the water first? Then the maxibloom?

Is there any math here? You said your nute solution is 600ppm when you are done mixing? So say your well water is 200ppm and you've got 150ppm of CalMag you're maxi bloom is 600-200-150=250ppm

Does 250ppm of maxibloom sound like a lot of maxibloom?
