If you are of the non-starving at flush type I'd say at least add the CalMag (w/ < 30 ppm RO water). I'm of the non-starving at flush type variety.
I don't think you would need much - say 1-2 ml per gallon RDWC. In flower I add Dyna-Gro Mag-Pro 2.5 ml/gallon during mid-flower, down to 1 ml/gallon at end. It won't raise your ppm that much.
Yeah I looked @ Mag-Pro: 2-15-4
Well it is 1 ml/gallon but I use RO too and that's where it's made up from lack of...Homebrewer likes Dyna-Gro as well and says (from a quick search) "3-1-2 for veg though I've found 1-1-1 works just as well. 1-3-2 for flower is by far the best NPK ratio I've tried thus far. ". Guess as long as there's not too much N in there. I like to taper light and N for 3 weeks going to flower.
Ditto here: "I rotate fert blends as the plant *requires* them, not because it is "the thing to do." For example, when your plants are going thru the stretch phase during early flowering, they may need more N, especially if you're getting some yellowing in the lower/mid leaves. Give up the cannabis paradigms, and give them what they need. Go back to mild high P fert when the stretch ends, maintaining the foliage in a healthy state of growth until harvest for maximum yields. A 1-3-2 blend such as Peter's Pro Blossom Booster, 10-30-20, is one of the best flowering blends on the market because of several factors - it is higher in nitrate N and Mg. It is sold under the Jack's Classic label. An added benefit of Peter's blends is their use of high quality, very pure salts that will cut down on root burn."
Since we're only talking about the final ~ 2weeks...
How about good old Epsom Salts? or a CalMg human supplement?

Epsom Salts is on many a good gardener's grow shelf.
If CalMg human supplement should be chelated (more bioavailable).
Looking on Sea Crop www, I could not find a breakdown of elements, nor an email contact
I had a few capsules of MgCa (2:1) I just added one to the rez.
In the mean time, reading an excerpt from Dr Ms book
http://www.ratical.org/ratville/SEA.html
there is enough potassium and enough phosphorus in the ocean water if one gets the complete sea solids.

Deep in flush mode last 7-10 days, using ~ 70ppm Sea Crop only, a fair amount of new pistils
On a recommendation to amp up tric production using 10K bulbs, 2 days ago I replaced some red spectrum hot5 tubes with 3 Quantum 6500s, which is a fall back position
Zipping through this thread, this morning I added MgCa (2:1) supplement for humans then decided to add a pinch of HR V+B= ~ 270ppms. I plan to dilute that to ~ 200 in a bit
Thought I would post new pics

I plan to use Sea 90 at up to 1500-2000ppm in later stages. I will either use coco or promix with mycorrhizae, and water by hand. Im thinking I will feed once a week and flush with water in between. This is all just an experiment for 3 of my girls, with 3 others I will lessen the salts and add some organic npk. Any feedback would be great! Thanks!

Most interesting way I've seen of feeding plants.
Makes me excited to get my waterfarm pack running. I'll most likely stick with my GH/Peters though and foliar seacrop. Nugs sound tasty.

Sodium chloride
Sodium chloride
Osirica420 mentioned high levels of sodium chloride in sea salt Is needed along with low levels of npk nute. I know this sounds crazy but thts why u have to lower ur npk nutes @200ppm

Hey castoner thanks for sharing looks awsome. How is the smoke?

A post I made in a different thread....
The "sodium chloride" in Table Salt vs Sea Salt are not the same.

I don't know I'm currently flushing them, but they look and smell awesome..I'm currently smoking some cured buds I had curing in mason jars for about 3 years, taste smooth and powerful smoke....From the Mandala strains..
Sea salt sodium
Sea salt sodium
^^^^^^yes eclipse420 is right. Every1 using sea salt has to understand this. Osirca420 already used all those products with less sodium but best results with high ppm with real sea salt & low @200ppm - 400ppm at most npk nutes

Can u please update us cause from what I'm told it will be fire? U can grow same strain with sea salt & bottled nutes but sea salts will taste better. Thanks for sharing castoner I'm in bakersfield ca so u should be in same state.
