We are in the middle of week 6. I think there is a deficiency or a toxicity. I couldn't understand why. Could you please check?

If I had to guess a bit of nitrogen excess, perhaps slight calmag deficiency.

Magnesium Deficiency ? How can I fix it ?
got a little deficiency (maybe burned? but I think not). I'm pretty sure it's magnesium's deficiency, it happens after a flushing. I added 2 times the last 2 weeks a little bit of CalMag (BioBizz, but ive bought it 2 years ago, maybe it doesn't work well idk).

problems with clones!
Friends, tell me what's wrong with the plant! I don't understand it's under-feeding or over-feeding! At first I thought it was a cal-mag deficiency, then I saw a purple stem and thought it was a phosphorus deficiency! Now I don't know what it is anymore! at the very beginning it

Potassium, correct?
I think this is the beginning of a potassium deficiency. The near neon green discoloration is what caught my eye. This leaf is affected the most. Second week of flower. The Alga Bloom was just increased from 2 to 4ml/l earlier this week, so she should be alright. Right?

3rd week since 12/12 and chlorosis is getting worse !!! Will my crop be crappy ?
Brought EC to 1.6, added 21ml of calmag, had to add 2L of osmosis water because the EC was 1.78. I changed the bad Ph probe and I let it fluctuate between 5.75 and 6. Should I remove the aluminium foil on the pot to let them breathe ? Not sure they are overwatered, I'm desperate

Ph Tester Malfunction, Whats next?
What is the best steps of action to react to a deficiency in the plant? Flush and add needed nutes? My ph tester was off so I think my ph is a little messed up which might explain the deficiency in cal/mag (? Any other thoughts welcome?)

Leaf issues. Lockout? Need to Flush??
Leaf issues started showing up in 2 of 3 plants, progressing fast. Soil runoff tests have been v. high (2000ppm+) so we're assuming it's a lockout issue. We watered 1 day ago, with 200ppm solution so pots are still very wet. Better to let them dry out a bit or flush right away?

Yellow tint on new growth
I've spotted some yellowing on new growth. I'm just in the end of Week 3 and am thinking it's caused by nutrient deficiencies? I've been sticking to 0.25ml/L and am planning to go to 1ml/L starting Week 4. Does anyone have any other ideas?

Rust-colored margins and dots. I would like to go back to fertilizing but I am afraid that it is an excess of potassium
Outdoor in the vegetative phase, southern climate. Soil is Biobizz light mix. So far I have only fertilized 2 times with the tripack ph perfect Advanced Nutrients. These rust-colored burns are present on almost all older leaves. Enlighten me please 🙏

High TDS and low ph runoff - Lockout? deficiency?
Struggling with some bad soil (beginners mistake). I water with dechlorinated tap water at around ph 7.4 and 400ppm (not feeding yet). But runoff ph is 6 and around 1000 ppm. Am I dealing with a N-lockout? why such a ph difference and high TDS value?
