Please help...my baby girl is sick.

6g/gal? I think with the SC going in, very K heavy, you're getting antagonistic uptake issues with Ca, very common actually... MC is K heavy as it is,... cut the SC out for now, better used toward the end of bloom, when MC amount should be tapered off... If you use Bud Explosion, even more so, that stuff is silly hot with K!
Do not add more CaMg to MC, it has plenty already!

autobeast-- There's no such thing as CaMg defc. if we are to take your writing at face value... Ca and Mg defc.'s are totally different and separate on every level... Ca is poorly mobile, Mg very mobile, and will affect the plant in different areas and different symptoms... the lockout is probably coming from too much K, adding more Ca in will not help, Mg and/or any heavy feeding will also contribute to the antagonistic uptake problem...
There is no base veg' feed in Megacrop, it's an all-in-one type nutrient... the last thing he needs is more N going in at this stage too, he's well into bloom now...

Not good. I listened to his suggestion & gave more CalMag. Everything I’ve read SC should be used the whole grow from start to finish not just at the end. I don’t know either way. I’m just trying to learn what’s best. I have the versions of MC & SC.

calmag defiency is real.and to little or to much calmag will display rust spots.happy growing every1;)

Also I never said lockout was caused by calmag.im.just saying what to do to make it right. And wasnt sure feed he was using.any.grower needs a veg and a bloom.feed for full.control.hope get u girls sorted.all best from me.happy growing every1;)
 
well, I get that,... I'm not the only one who has watched GLN carefully over years now, many users, and no small number ending up in here... I used MC myself to try it out, found it great for veg., iffy for bloom... Shotgun blasting of main nutes and supp's (Si, amino's, carb's, etc.) doesn't mean it's the better way to go about things, and flat-out, the load of K going in is heavy for MC alone, add in SC and/or BE, and it's overkill to bad effect... Carefully managed, some folks do fine, but I have to say the number of growers that show up here using their stuff as recommended, or even lighter feeds is out of proportion...
it's not a disaster (I don't think), keep in mind this is difficult with nothing but what bits and pieces of info are gathered,.. Only an actual soil test would show what K and Ca load is in there, and that ain't gonna happen!
truth is, the needs of each nutrient during the plants life cycle varies a lot,... adding in PK boosters too soon, for example, or extra SC early on will not help things really, they plant can only use so much at a time, and the rest just sits and makes for trouble with cross reaction with other nutes, and often antagonistic uptake issues... some block other ions from uptake, even if there's plenty of, say, Ca in there, too much K screws with ca uptake,... Have a look in the Defc. Pic Depot, page 2, toward the bottom you'll see nute excess charts, Mulders Wheel and such...

...no "CaMg defc" is NOT real, and you go ahead and show me a single piece of valid scientific/gardening proof that as a pair linked together, they are a defc. syndrome...
Ca toxicity and Mg toxicity show differently, same for defc.,.. add in the mess of other cations and antagonistic interactions, lockouts, and you can get apparent defc. symtpoms that are in fact lockouts, not actual lack-of defc.... Look at the same charts and info I just cited right here, Ca and Mg can both mess with each other as well as other cations for uptake, but they do not present or exist as a defc. together as a pair...

Nothing deep about it.each to there own.but I do.not tell lies.here u go.nothing else to be said.
Happy growing every1;)
 
...right, you just proved my point to you dude, "CaMg" defc. is not a thing, they are SEPARATE, and do not necessarily occur at the same time, linked together as a separate issue from Ca or Mg defc.'s alone... That is what I'm saying here - :doh: Even that sorry info blip you linked gets it right eventually, and nowhere does it say and graphically show a combined independent set of symptoms; their language "Cal-Mag" at the conclusion is poorly put, and is not presented as a dual nutrient syndrome, nor does it prove that it is.... This is one of many cannabis misnomers out there, like "strains" which is wrong, along with many others...
Believe what you want to GB, but keep that rubbish out of my House in here, I'm trying to steer new growers away from confusing incorrect terminology like this!
 
hahaha this is priceless!! :crying: Maybe CalMag is a yet to be discovered mineral that only nutrient and supplement manufacturers know about? :shrug:

Just add molasses and it will fix it :rofl:

It is pointless @Waira - zero regards for scientific evidence, zero knowledge about plant biology and "I'm right because I said so" rhetoric.
Pointless to try to reason with him.

How much molasses? How often?
