I cant find where I read it now but it was stated specifically that the ca/mg+ is derived from calcium and magnesium carbonate and not from calcium nitrate.. But I am thinking I may need to switch it up for a grow or 2 just to see what/if anything changes... The only reason I really continue to use it on a regular basis is because I use RO water so I figure they are going to need it so I just run a tsp per gal... I'm starting to think maybe I need to go lower as far as a constant dosage instead of continuously going up.. Most all my other grows; granted I was using aerated tap... I rarely ran into this issue and I hardly ever busted out the cal/mag...
Something about the Go CaMg + (like how you see a film left on the pouring container or glass you mix it in) tells me it's consistency and availability to plants is questionable. I have always had to go upwards of 10 ML/Gal on the GO stuff, and if you wait too long it is not quickly broken down by the plants because they do not bounce back quickly from the CalMag deficiency .... Literally with the botanicare cal mag plus you see positive results the next day. I would keep adding at least 5 ml/gal proactively, because once that CaMg problem starts the GO stuff is gonna be playing catch up
