I had the same problem. Turned out they weren’t getting enough calmag. Did you buffer well?
I never buffered as was unaware to do so untill after repotting them up, once i noticed my run off was max on my meter i then was washing with 1.0ec to get my run off lower and now its down...
So should i ease off on the cal-mag

Negative. You have those spots from not using enough.

well the spots are from a lack of calcium.. if magnesium becomes a problem (If not enough) you will see the leaves lighten up and you will see larger spots.

Agree with hydrokid, everything he stated is truth
Cheers lads..
So when i mix my nutes
Should i add may cal mag first at full strength
Then a&b at weaker then stated till i hit the e.c i want....

Or do i go full strength nutes on it all thej add more water to dilute and get my desired e.c thanks again

Just adjust your ppm so you don’t go overboard. Mix your A&B then add calmag.
