I'm feeding maxi right now too and those numbers seem off. 4 grams of maxibloom for me is less than 500 ppm. How high is your tap water's ppm? If it's high, then ditch the calmag. You might need to give them a little epsom salts instead. If they're in early veg, they probably don't need the full 7 gram dose, mine get tip curls when I got up to 600 ppm. A few more weeks and they'll use it though.

This is where I am stumped.. during veg I used the full 7 grams per gallon and 4ml of cal mag per gallon! Meaning that PPMS would’ve been thru the roof. But this tip burning has recently started a few weeks ago.. how long does it take for nute burn to show itself could be the question ?

On my meter it read “1384ppm” I’m not sure of the conversions you’re speaking of I need to read some up on that... ppm of regular tap water is “464ppm”
Wow man you tap water is very high. I would lose the calmag and add some Epsom salt. Maybe 1 gram per gallon and up to 1.5 in flower.
