Ok.

So here’s what I would do for now.

I would cut some of your bottled water with your tap water. Approx 20% and then test the EC.

lay off the Calmag as your 20% tap water will definitely have a enough in it to sustain the plant along with your nutes.

This then gives you some Ca and Cl from the tap water.

keep up your normal feeding EC.

So doing this has lowered the salt Content basically lol if this fixes it I’ll be so happy it’s always the simple things.
I remember years ago I was feeding my plants with every water and it just locked up but I flushed and learnt to do it atleast every other feed or use amendments. I’m best with outdoor growing but where I moved it’s not private… indoors is better for the controlled environment less pests etc. just takes up a lot of room. One time I was 7’weeks deep into flower and got a letter for a housing check I’ve never took down a whole grow so fast before I had 24 hours to take down 2 tents and somehow move eight x 70-120cm plants somewhere or risk chopping early. So we hired a removal van and put them
All on there lol

all that for fucking fire alarm checks that took
5 mins max.

This is in a 2mx1m with 2 hlg 350r and a 600w hps/10kmh. I’m gonna get a 1.5x3m and another 2 350r for summer and ditch the hid altogether. Can’t wait til this is finished so I can refurb the space again lmao.
