Just bought AN Sensi Cal-Mag Extra. Do I half the concentration listed or go full strength. As a preventative, should I add to every feeding? When is best time to begin extra cal-mag as a preventative? Thanks.

IMO you should use it full strength if using led as your source of lighting.

They reccomend there cal mag for other base nutes other then there own. Stating they have enough in there's. I am using green planet cal mag at full strength for the last four feedings and are now not showing spots on new growth mine says to use every feeding. sensi cal mag xtra says to use untill corrected so they might have a more powerful cal mag benneficial. But if you are showing signs of cal mag hit it with full strength if doing it as preventive measure then half strength might do. From their site i cannot tell the numbers of the cal mag xtra.

There is a load of N in there..

What kind of light, soil, nutrients are you using?

As previously mentionned if using LED a lot of growers will be using it more often and to a higher strength than other lights user.
 
They don't list the percentage of cal/mag but I would go half dose at every watering until week five then go full dose.

My current grow is on day 48. Been flowering for about 1 week. Growing in ProMix in 3 gallon pots. T5HO lighting. My bloom nutrient is plain Algoflash Bloom. (I know, I will change next grow). Not seeing any kind of harmful nutrient deficiency symptoms. Everything looks really good. PH in at 6.4 out at 6.4 or 6.5. I just want to prevent a cal/mag problem before it shows up.
