My tapwater is lacking some mag, and im working with checked ph level 6,3 - 6,5. It looks like they have mag deficiency right? Going for bittersalt to correct the mag problem. Any tips?

N DEF EARLY-MID FLOWER W.Gelato seems its taking too much nitrogen. Ive already made top dressing with worm castings and compost teas but still hungry. My question is: should i add some small dose of NPK mineral based (i have PLAGRON coco A+b) or it would do more bad than good since im doing organic
