Hey there GardeningDoug, sorry to say but you have a magnesium lockout, you can tell because you're seeing magnesium deficiency which is when the serrated edges of the leaves start to yellow but you're also adding a lot of calmag. Probably you're watering the plants with the same solution and not taking the time to mix it, the order in which you feed might have this plant simply recieve a bit more calmag than the rest over time this adds up and you can get a lock out. Try resetting the soil by watering carefully and evenly until the moment you're seeing runoff, measure how much water that was then add 20% more to get run off. that's a flush , then just start your exact same feeding regimen after 10 days, just be a bit more careful this time. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Hey Growmie, You're having a magnesium deficiency, you can tell from the light green or yellow coloring that's to show on the veins and edges of the lower & older leaves – this is one of the classic signs of a magnesium deficiency. You may also see red stems. Often with this deficiency, the magnesium is present, but the roots cannot absorb the magnesium properly due to an improper pH. Therefore it is very important to maintain the correct pH (and make sure the pH does not get too low/acidic) in order to avoid a magnesium deficiency. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.
