This is your problem right here, not your water.

Ive been quietly lurking on this and am also in agreement that its not the water but your choice to compound more into base medium. Not only can calcium become antagonist to magnesium, so can potassium. Coast of maine describes a slow release N …. Plus you added more nutes in a form that has yet to fully be used in an already charged “ super soil “ as they like to call it. This definitely from grower error over any of the products.

You at a minimum should have ran plants on medium alone using tap or whatever. The Fish meal alone covers the calcium component. The excess from your hyper load of nutes created this mess. Adding any and every shelf bought calmag supplement to dump down their throats made it even worse.

I get a single grow a year and I’ve done nothing but remove or reduce rather then introduce new things at this point being my 3rd grow I turned it R&D to figure out a solution so I don’t have to be ignorant so yes I started low dosing my water with non nitrogen based cal/mag, hats off to you il take your serve

You didn’t state which Coast of Maine soil you are using, there are multiple types. It looks like almost all of them are precharged with nutrients as well. Then you are adding more dry amendments and CalMag on top of it all. That wouldn’t be what I’d call removing or reducing new elements of the grow.

Coast of maine platinum growers been has been fantastic for us. Coast of maine growers blend was very Meh. Now we just use 20 gal fabric pots with platinum growers blend as the base soil, add EWC, fish bone meal, green sand, very little Dr earth and a bunch of lobster compost. No issues feeding straight water. We haven't been growing very long but this is working out very well.

The way you talk is like an adult yelling at a toddler pouring shampoo down the drain it’s somewhat amusing being the fact that none of my plants have EVER died lol when the bottle refers me to 1-2ml per gallon I literally use .5-.2 ml literally a micro dose, for your next response I shall be applying bud ripeners and PGR’s in veg because that’s literally how you speak like a over concerned radical Karen expecting every Tom dick and harry to be a degenerate, I am all for learning and improving that’s why I don’t mind FAILING or TRYING, il take in your knowledge no doubt but your delivery is just horrid

My delivery is matter of fact. Sad state of affairs that people can't handle a direct approach.

You're complaining about issues and asking for help and then bitch that you don't like the way the help is delivered. Get over it cupcake.

So what kind of Coast of Maine soil are you using?
Why are you adding dry amendments to it before using up what's in the soil?
Why would you think you need to add CalMag on top of it?

Big difference between help and criticism that is not constructive in any way shape or form

Not much Help when it comes to your non constructive criticism and typical everyday assumption that everyone is incompetent, I use the stonington blend but just for everyone’s piece of mind this isn’t my first grow I also used happy frog before hand WITHOUT dry amendments and also the same soil I’m using now WITHOUT dry amendments but yet I still get black veins and intervienal yellowing, build a soil 3.0 is fucking packed to the brim with nutes but all I ever see people get is slight Nitrogen abundance and that’s it so how is my soil out of whack

With all that being said I have no idea how everyone is saying it’s my dry amendments causing this garbage

I was helpful. My first post said you could use any kind of water. That’s true. The water type isn’t your issue.

I never said anything about your medium, all I said was water isn’t your issue.
