Does anybody know if plants use more calcium and magnesium when you switch from veg to flowering and they start to stretch?

They r wet still but out of food for an unknown amount of time as your run off ec shows you.When I get a irrigation system I will feed them at least 2 or 3 times per day but I can't afford one at the minute, it takes me hours just to feed them once a day lol they are still wet when I water them once a day
Buy a tote or a plastic outside garbage can and mix everything in that. Submersible pump it into your smaller containers to feed. U can get a pump for under ten bucks that will fill a gallon in 15 seconds. Or just use a bucket and pour it into your containers or directly to plants that way

I never thought of it like that, thank you for the insight. I will try to feed them twice per day

You won't need that much for run off if you feed multiple times a day.I don't get run off until I put about 3 liters through each plant and 4 plants takes about 12 liters so I have to make up two 10 liter watering cans dude, maybe I'm getting too much run off or some shit? I have to add the nutrients to my source water, then add PH down and test the EC and PH and then I have to do that twice for 2 different watering cans and then I have to feed them to my plants. It takes me at least 1 hour
Not sure why you have to test for EC and pH each time........wouldn't it always be the same if you use the same amounts?
I never check my run off for anything, and I don't even own an EC meter.

I guess I can try feeding multiple times a day.
Sometimes the PH of my tap water changes so I have test it all the time to make sure it hasn't changed because the last time I add 4ml of ph down it changed it from PH 6.0 to 5.8 when it's normally 6.0
