So now I'm an asshole? Cool.

Took a look at your youtube channel. Why even have a channel? Telling people they have to have CalMag and your twenty bottles of fluff? I never use CalMag. I also wasn't impressed with those plants you had. I'll put my grows up against yours any day. Lets see some pictures of your stuff and not those scrawny plants on your youtube channel.

And I didn't have to resort to name calling.

Out of here.

Sorry to the OP for mucking up their thread.
You must be a special kind of stupid. Never heard of the ole saying opinions are like assholes everyone has em? Lol don't get butthurt there buddy. And you dont have to have calmag dipshit but it's better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. As it just became legal where I'm at I wont post videos of grows that went on when it wasnt legal. So by means act like the crop god all you want. Scrawny lol last time I checked a 3 week old plant isnt massive. Kids these days and their little feelings. How cute.

Ok thanks for the info guys. A little hostility but that’s alright that’s what we need. I just made a mix of lower Ph 5.7-5.8 and I’m going to flush it. Is that ok? Also, I’m being told that the yellowing from bottom up is a mag defincency so should I give it some Cal Mag after the flush and some nutes?

Did you run any nutes in on the last gallon ? I've never used roots but from my understanding they also have only about 3-4 weeks in the soil until they need more like fox farm and others. On mine I ran a lightly mixed up gallon of bloom nutes and 2ml of calmag within a week they were looking much better. But again on tap your rarely need calmag especially since you arent using RO water.

No nutes just ph’d water at 5.6-5.8 like you said. Run off cans out 6.5-7ish. I use the ph up and down. I use tap water. Should I put some cal mag and bloom for next water? How much because they’re autos? And at what ph? Still low or regular?

I typically ph my water and feedings at 6.2 or 6.3 just what has seemed to work for mine but I'm also running fox farm nutes for the most part. And these 4 are also autos. I've used calmag maybe 2 or 3 times on this grow and it was 2 ml per gallon and I use big blossom and tiger bloom this time and I am at half strength of my dosage. But since you've had some issues I personally start with a 1/4 strength. My autos bounced back great. And after my issues I will stick with ffof or hf been great ever since let em dry out and go back to the normal routine

So flush it with regular water? Test ph? If too high flush again with lower ph and nutes?
You can only do this once until the medium completely drys out. By that time you will need some nutrient.

Have you tested the water? Does it have chlorine or other hard minerals? Ph is just the half of it.

I think you got a couple things going on here..

I actually did forget that I was just assuming everyone let the chlorine evaporate. But yes 100% agree

Looking good! Cal mag with every water? I used 1/8 strength roots organic bloom with every other water and they burned so I might start with less. Or should I switch to different kinds of nutes?

Do you want a cookie or some shit? If you intend to be a douche you should have just walked away from the post. You dont impress me absolutely noone is perfect so get off your high horse. But I dont argue with keyboard warriors so if you're not helping get out the way.
I gave good advice.
You gave shitty advice.

And the poor noob listened to you -- another noob.

Exactly what does impress you?
Frosty bud pics?

I've got lots of those too... 8-)

Results matter.

Noob.

Chlorine will evaporate, if it is Chloramine (super bleach) you need to filter it or add a of bit vite c to neutralize (Aloe juice.)

Also floride, sulfates from water softeners, hard water calcium, sulphur and magnesium can mess you up too. Especially running indoor soilless medium with chemical nutrient.

Not talking shit, just trying to open your eyes to municipal water. Its nasty. I have used three RO filters this year for 5 plants.

It does have some chlorine in it. These are the water results. I usually let it sit out for a day or two before watering if I don’t forget lol

Kids these days sure like to hide behind a monitor and talk all their shit. Everyone is so much cooler online. I've had plenty of success doing what I do. Your "way" isnt the only. Go get laid kid it might help ya out a bit. Not gonna continue to go back and forth while you hide behind a monitor. Good luck pal

Thank you for your adult approach to a conversation. You are correct I personally have never had issues with my tap but it does vary place to place. Mine airs out a day or a few also oxygenate with a pump sometimes. But the water in my area is pretty good. But touche.
