First time using high powered led lights

[steveydvee]

So before we get off topic with this cal mag debate. Let’s start with what deficiencies you guys think this is?

 

[steveydvee]

I’m wanting to go full organic, I’m not opposed to a synganic type grows. But I have spent a lot of resources building up beneficial microorganisms and predators and I’m sure throwing salts will throw off the microbiology(maybe not as much as I presume).

None

I said, first person who says cal mag is banned.

So, you gonna ban yourself then? Are you not seeing a calcium or magnesium deficiency? I make sure that my nutes have plenty of cal and mag, but I do not use a bottle.

I don’t see deficiency, I see imbalance

None

LMFAO. Do your plants look like the OP's?

 

[maranibbana]

OP do u use or have any kind or microbe drench like rootwise?

 

[PJ Diaz]

Half-empty and half-full are the same thing.

There is a big different between something being deficient, and something being unbalanced. You add to deficient things, If you add more to something that’s imbalanced you will only continue to throw it off.

 

[maranibbana]

Living soil will self correct when given bennie drenches like rootwise, recharge, mammoth p etc and plain filtered water

Esp if it’s over fed or imbalanced

Only if you add the thing which you already have an excess of. If you add the thing which you are deficient in, then your imbalance comes into alignment.

You're going to run into problems with full organic and high intensity LED's. Not saying its not Do-able but it definitely takes some practice/experience. I tried it and ended up supplementing with Mega-Crop nutrients and Cal-Mag to get through my entire grow. Which was cool because I still got the terpy fire bud I usually get that I didn't think was possible with Synthetic nutes.

But if you are trying to go 100% organic then I suggest using as big of containers/no till beds as possible.

Check out my posts and look at a thread I made on this subject. A lot of good info in there.

Nothing wrong with full organic if you can make it work. So, either you can keep trying to make it work, which could take weeks to correct, or you can give it a dose of some well rounded synthetic nutes. Your choice. I know what I'd do.

I’ve never given my plants calmag ever...under high intensity LEDs and have zero problems...in 15gal living soil pots...

Then that’s deficiency not imbalance lol.
Deficient = not enough
Imbalance = too much

 

[maranibbana]

If I was you OP, I would find some RO water, and a GOOD not cheap microbe drench (ROOTWISE SOIL DYNAMICS), and give that to them for a week, maybe even two

No. Imbalance means not enough of one thing to balance out the other.

I clearly said it was do-able and also mentioned bigger pots seem to be the way to go.

Then I spoke on my personal experience.
