Each plant most likely will have subtle changes. If you find that the plant is overdoing the N then during flower you limit the availability of K which leads to other issues. Dropping it down was the right thing to do and let the green lighten up a bit. You may have gone down too far however. The rule of thumb is 10% increments, so half a gram lower would have been the correct change.

I didn't see the other posts, so I apologize if I stepped on toes here 
Well hold on, what's Ironmike's calmag NPK value. I thought his was 1-0-0 but that's what MV uses.
No toe stepping here Mr.Sauga take what you put as serious and thank you for the response!I didn't see the other posts, so I apologize if I stepped on toes here

I believe it is, but I’ll have to look. Looking at notebook I was at 4g per gallon on hydro and dropped to 3g so it was a full gram drop
OK so Shed is probably right. You sound like you may have a 4-0-0. How much Calmag were you using per gallon so I can run some numbers @Ironmike340
I wonder if it's GLN Calmag? 13%... at 4g/gal of MC he'd need 5mL of Sensi Cal at 4-0-0, or 15+ mL of 1-0-0 to get them that green.
Correct. I use the GH calmag+ (1-0-0) to balance against the silica (0-0-3), nothing more.
I use the same stuff... has a nice dose of Ca in it as well

I’m using gh cal mag 1-0-0.
I use 2.5 ml per gallon I mix 4 gallons so add 10ml. I been using half strength. I use a full 5ml per gallon with ro and soil.
So with mega crop not sure if this is causing something?
My plant in flower shows no problem

I am using two pots that take about 2 l of water each per watering how many grams of mega crop should I give per 4 litres of water in flower I'm 5 and 1/2 Weeks and my buds are small this is about a 7 week plant. The pots were from two rose plants I bought in the summer and then cleaned the crap out of. I'm ready to give up on the mega crop train as I know you up the dose and I'm using 8 grams of mega crop already and no improvement

autos are super sensitive to ..... everything. fart and they fall over.
autos regulate by pot size and time. once the roots hit the side of the pot, the clock starts rolling, fast.
for that reason most will up pot once from seedling, to largest size pot they want the finished plant in. bigger pot , bigger plant, bigger yield. autos are generally smaller by nature.
edit: also if it's in the flower room, autos do better 18/6 start to finish generally. doesn't matter now.

... or make my eggshell calmagphos, with or without the molasses for the Mg... good stuff, and no N.
Emmie's DIY CalMagPhos+ From Eggshells
This is an awesome product to use during the changeover period from growing to flowering/fruiting on all of your plants. For most of us, by using molasses we are able to get the magnesium that our plants need, but for our calcium needs, most of us have to fall back on a commercial product, and...
