Hi folks.
Couple of days ago my girls were showing signs of cal / mag deficiency, as I am in a soft water area. I fed a little too much of the calmag to treat it and as a result have what looks like a moderately severe manganese deficiency. I hear that an overfert of magnesium can cause this.
I was planning to flush then refeed again in a day or two using much less of the cal mag, perhaps a 1/4 strength dose if that.
However, I have read that a foliar feed with a fert containing manganese can help treat the problem a little quicker.
I presume Canna A&B (which I am using for nutes) has manganese in it. Can it be used as a foliar spray? It doesn't say anything on the bottle about it. Has anyone got experience of this? Should I do it? What sort of dilution if so?
PS ph is fine at 6.0, and I am in veg
