how much extra cal mag do ogs like?
I know that ogs like more cal mag than other plants do, but I assume if youre growing in coco it will be even more?
regularly you would feed 3-5 mls / gallon, but with ogs it would be more 6-8ml/gal? Everything in my garden besides the ogs are happy, and I cant seem to dial the yellowing in on time or at all. IT also seems that they eat more than usual plants.. but I see some nitrogen claw early in flower.. can this be from too much calmag, or base? with ogs should you feed less base more cal mag.. I appreciate any recommendations. they are in 3 gallon coco pots. strain : skywalker og., The gelato and cherry pie all do well, just want to get these ogs dialed in. thanks for all the help!

You probably need Calcium OR Magnesium but I bet not both...
Cal/Mag mixes are probably the issue & will cause your soil to go out of balance. From the numbers I've seen, mostly to the Mg side. Mg in excess will lock out Ca & vice versa. Show us a pic of the offending leaves/plant & I bet you'll figure it out fairly quickly. |

I just got a cut of fire OG recently and also have cherry pie and a Skywalker OG Hybrid in the same veg room.
I have noticed the fire needs less food and is easier to overwater when young. Roots are thinner and grow slower. The whole room was getting 1.3-1.4 but then I noticed the glues/OG/chems looking a bit funny so I dialed back to .9-1.0 and they are all looking much better after only a couple days. The cherry pie/Tangie/sky lotus and some other og hybrids by bodhi all can take the 1.4 with little issue. Hybrid vigor!

Can we get some pictures?
You gotta keep in mind that true OG is always a bit finicky so they'll take a bit to dial in. |

Well the amt of cal mag is dependent on 2 main things, 1. Your base nutes and ratios ur using. 2. What's in your starting water. Ro? Low tap? If tap what ppms of what ...
I use ro water and add 2.5ml per gal with gh base and never get deficiencies on ogs... I would definitely NOT give it more then 5ml 6-8 your asking for problems... |
