These photos were taken this morning, they are almost 4 weeks into bloom. PLEASE does anyone have any idea's?
Here is the breakdown
Promix with nothing added
FED advance nute sensi a and b as directed by the nute calculator except for not adding bud candy as directed. Cal mag added 1 1\2 teaspoon per gallon about a week ago, then another 1 1\2 teaspoon per gallon last watering which was Thursday. Then last night fed with foliar fed with calmag 1 teaspoon per gallon.
RO water
Co2 at 1200 ppm
Temps around 85 degrees during day, around 73 at night.
RH kept between 40-50%

I am giving up on advanced nutrients and prolly going with dynagrow after this crop but I don't wanna lose these so any ideas would greatly be appreciated....

According to AN's chart you are overdosing it with the Calmag.The only foliar spray they offer is the B-1 Green.I have only used it once,I dont believe in foliar spraying.Too each his own though.In my opinion they appear to be recovering from a nute lockout or a Nitrogen deficiency.The green looks like its coming back.I would put my PH right on 7.0 and wait and see what happens.Peace

i hear AN needs to be run at half strength, until you know your plants can handle more...but i still dont see a Mg problem man, its either def N or K(they look kinda similar at first signs to me) by the yellowing, or the soil is simply locked out, and a good flush is your answer... btw the canna bible say you can spray with epsom salts for a quick mg def cure, dont say anythig bout cal/mag, but im almost sure its not the problem here...

calcium nitrate offers 2% nitrogen usually man so don't think for a minute that cal-mg is just calcium and mag it'll burn u'r plants most bloom ferts only have 3 to 4 pts of nitrogen and if u'r using that + cal-mg u'r up'n the nitrogen by alot

You do have a cal mag issue. Probably mostly from ph being off. Also You can foliar feed cal mag. I just had this problem. Was there purple going up stalk to leaves stems and veins goin down to the tips of any leaves? If so it's mag def. cal def shows yellowing on edges and little rust colored brown spots.

I use AN don't add calmag it's probably what's caused the problems your looking at, unlike other manufactures their sensi products have like 5 different calcium/mg sources in it already. No need to ever add calmag with advanced nutrients not even in coco really.

What happened in my case cause I'm using nectar of the gods was I watered twice without nutes and caused the calmag problem. So I did a foliar feed twice with calmag and then gave a regulate feeding an the next week they were fine.

Was wondering if anyone knew if you could foliar feed with calmag plus, bottle says 1 teaspoon with watering normal feeding and 2 teaspoons per gallon accelerated feeding. I'm pretty sure I have a mag def and would like to clear it up asap. I also have epsom salt.

Humic and Fulvic will chelate micronutrients and make them available to the roots to take up into the plant .
Your pictures are not available to my computer .

Cal Mag is for Magnesium deficiency because you need Mag to create Chollyfil .

If I put too much chemicals in my plants and realise it I flush the pot with Water + a small amount of Garlic Powder to make a solution and only use the liquid at the top and not use the garlic powder that sinks to the bottom .

The after 30 minutes I flush with water to let the roots heal from to strong of chemicals . It is better to only have the roots burn less rather than more . As soon as you realise you might be burning the roots then try to correct the mistake .

I wonder if Aloe Vera plus water would be a healing solution for the roots . I guess I will look that up on the Googlenet ,

Just trying to help, the post you replied to is 11 years old.

Dates on the post are the biggest indicator. Also if you click on the member name you can see when they joined and when they were last active.

On a separate note. What's the deal with adding garlic powder to your flush? This is a first for me
