Nitrogen problems

hi, I'm currently seeking a nutrient that is high in nitrogen. I use heavy 16 nutes with a calmag and a couple things from AN, such as voodoo juice and big bud. But even with all these nutes I'm still having a nitrogen shortage. Any suggestions?
I'm trying to avoid bat guano as it will clog my feeding pump.

Pic's would help to determine whether you have a nitrogen def or something else. Yellowing can be much more than just nitrogen.

What are you at on flower now? 3 weeks? Heavy 16 Bud A+B would give you a NPK of 3-3-9. Should be enough N to finish you out, however that's a little low on P for me at week 3-5 I like more like a 5 or 6 on my P levels.
As a rule for me I always feed my grow formula for the first 2 weeks of flower.

I am in week 3, I'm also using prime, fire and finish. I am following the heavy 16 feeding chart and subbing voodoo juice for roots. Nute lock is now becoming my worry or Do you think the fire is too much? That stuff is potent.

Wow. 1-10-16. So with all that you're running at 1-10-20. That's not a balanced feed.
If it was me I would run the base grow a+b, bloom a+b, and use the fire at half strength weeks 3-6 of flower and ditch the rest.
So my suggestion would be to go back to the Heavy 16 Bloom formula to finish until you decide to flush if you think you need it.

What do you mean by base A&B?

Base nutrients should always be you're first purchase. These are the one that will have what you need for good growth, the other stuff is questionable in my opinion.
