Nutrients question on GH Maxi series

I'm currently running GH MaxiGro/Maxibloom with CaliMagic. I would like to not depend on Calimagic since it's in liquid form and I rather use dry ingredients. Would switch from the nutes above to only using MaxiBloom + calcium nitrate and epsom salt be a possible replacement from beginning to end in the plant life cycle?

MaxiGro ratios are 10-5-14. Maxibloom is 5-15-14.

I believe my primary concern is over abundance of phosphorus if I use Maxibloom from beginning to end, causing nutes burn?

have you tried not using the cal/mg with the same nutes?

There are a lot of Cal Mag products that give you just what you need.

You can also do what you suggested and use Cal-Nit & Epsom Salts.... Cheaper too in the long term

I did test run without Calimagic. It does grow but seems not as fast with the leaves. I know, not very scientific at all.

My concern using calcium nitrate is that it also contains nitrogen, which is one of NPK ratios. Hence, my thought process is to use Maxibloom only but then the phosphorous is on the high side throughout the plant life cycle.

When i use Maxibloom for a whole grow my plants always need a little N supplementation, so i don't see the problem tbh

I've been using maxibloom for quite a while. i think it does a good not great job from start to finish.

this grow i'm using maxigro for veg and first 2 weeks of 12/12 and then 50/50 bloom/gro for the rest of flower.

Never have had a P Toxicity problem using Maxibloom... Like Calcium, tuff to over do with weed.

I use GH Flora 3 part with calimagic.
With the N in the calimagic and lots of N in the Flora gro, i cut back harsh on the Flora Micro. Like 75% off the suggested dosage.

So with the Maxi why not just just back on the dosage of the high N part?

Works for me....
