What nutrients are you using? Why do you think its mg deficiency? Looks more like overfeeding, leaf tips are curling up. Hard to tell in the pics though under that light. Cant really see what the leaves look like.

Im gonna say overwatering and/or overfeeding after those pics. What are you using on them? Are you using bloom foods high in PK values. The first couple pics look N deficient too.

Yeah I had just watered in those pics and I'm using the roots organic master feed schedule.

No idea about the quality of these nutrients, but dont just follow the schedule. You have to look at the plant and adjust accordingly. I'd give the yellow plants more N (guessing your feeding schedule is having you give the plants higher P & K right now) and back off the strength of your nutes a little bit. See how they react.

Try using jacks classic line of nutrients when you run out of those. Think you'll have more success and dont have to worry about mixing a bunch of different bottles to get the same thing.

I thought about nute burn as well but I've only been feeding at 5ml per gallon of solution and I mix three gallons of solution at a time so 15ml..

Figured underfeeding if anything. I think my tap might be hard. It's around a 8.2 pH. Idk if chloramine is in it. I let it sit out a good long while before using it though. I might go back to distilled and supplement cal mag. I only have a ph pen no tds meter I need to buy one

But more and more I look at deficiencies I think you guys are right it's not a deficiency. Didn't mean to sound rude or better than anyone.

Mag, phos and potassium defs. Not nute burns. Roots organic nutes will always leave you with defs. The dry nutes you have to use 3 times what the directions say. If you want all in one nutes. Dr. Earth tomato and vegetable are pretty good. The amount of npk doesn't mean anything. Less is more. Alot of companies put way too much phos and potassium causing abuse to the plants. Its about a balance of minerals. Nute burns will start with reddish tips than advance along the edges moving inward.

I myself topdress down to earth vegan mix, kelp meal, neem meal, rock dust, and worm castings

See that's kind of what I was thinking. But then I look at allllll these pictures and advice and you're just like Ahhh. But you're right I read the directions on my dry nutrients and the chart is wayyyyy less than the directions I agree on using more of the dry nutrients. I'll work it out though.
