Nute Burn Question+Pics

Floramicro is already giving you plenty of calcium. Adding more would probably just interfere with your magnesium uptake.
The nuteburn def stopped after flushing it for the few days but it still looks like it has a slight def. Could it possibly be a slight magnesium problem? Ive heard from alot of lucas users that they need to add a little epsom salt from time to time to give it a little mag. boost..

In that second picture it def still has that slightly splotchy look on the sugar leaves..

I don't know the ratio of calcium to magnesium that is desirable but I think your plants look pretty good. You're at day 45 now? You got 2 weeks left and instead of trying to diagnose an issue this late, personally I'd just feed them on the lighter side until the end and take good notes for your next run with the lucas formula.

Alright word ill just take your advice and just feed it light until then.. I def have been taking some notes, The other 3 strains i have going, diesel, La confidential x skunk, and hashplant haze x bagseed sativa have all had a perfect time on the lucas formula, the motivation is just really touchy. Im going to run the same strains again plus warlock so next time i should know how far i can push it without having to test my limits..


Homebrewer i really do appreciate all your help.. Thanks!

you know what i do think it now is a mag. def. and not a calcium like i first thought.. it was hard to tell cuzz you got more then one problem going on there, but if you look at the leaves, not only are they burnt, but the leaves starting to go yellow while the veins are still green= mag. def.....

Word thanks for your input ChiTown. I actually had an idea that it might be a mag. def. because ive heard of alot of users claim the lucas formula doesnt provide enough mag. for certain strains, i added some epsom salt and it seem's to have started to fix it. Ill send you a pm of some updated pics tonight..
