Soil is a yr old and re-ammended every grow, so another source is needed unless I have a different issue

I'd agree with @Evil-Mobo. I don't run organics atm so I can't really be of much help. Only thing I could think of is hydrated lime but I don't even know if that's the same as dolomite lime or organic. I just know that hydrated lime is much more readily active than dolomite lime. That's all I got lol

Bump some epsom salt to it first but yeah cal mag+ is fine to add in organic, a teaspoon will do
, habitual use of it will

I am not sure I am using the right amounts of each thing, so too much of one thing could be the same as not enough of another maybe?

In no till to my knowledge so far the only thing you can burn your plants with is the Silica and I have yet to even find the point that the Silica harms my plants and really don't see the point in finding out. If the environment is correct with the living soil you're basically the grounds keepper, you maintain the soil and the plant grows itself. Now this is going off of a proper soil to start with. (I'm not saying your soil is bad).
What I am finding is, because I grow different strains, the obvious is plants still have different needs, even different pheno's of the same strains, so it's a game with the top dressing to give the plants what they want/need. But as I am still learning and this run was/is my first no till run I will chuck up any deficiencies in the soil right now to my own error. But I can tell you I have never had such large and healthy plants in my garden as now. And the taste off of my organic buds is crazy compared to the same strain last time in coco.
And I haven't been foliar spraying too much in veg now to slow down the growth rate, when I was full bore with the foliars and on top of the feeding in the beginning I was getting as good or better results than when I did hydro and that really did Amaze me. Whoever says you cannot grow big healthy plants indoors in soil for quality and yield has not done a proper no till grow.

Im still thinking maybe me not mixing the soil to cook was an issue. Meaning lots of certain things in clumps here and none there.
I figure eventually it will balance out if thats the cause though

I believe i may have a mag deficiency. I have been thinking these plants are super sensitive, but after some googling looks like a lack of Mag can cause some tip burn also. Anyone else run into this? Just a little burn on the tips, very small. Also I've read if it goes unchecked it can cause your larger fan leaves at the bottom to yellow fast, and I am getting a little more of that than I'm used to. Just fed one plant that seems to be showing this the most today with 50/50 veg and flower nutes, and 1/2 a tsp of calimagic.

Yeah I wish I could be of more help. I'm stuck battling what I think is a cal mag deficiency but I'm not even sure of that lol.

Is that one plant in the pic a few pages back, with the light colored leaves the only one with problems and if so, is it a different strain than the others?

Yep that's black dog pheno 3, I'm kinda thinking it's a serious cal mag issue. I started looking really close and some of my other plants and some have that orange rust burn and outer leaf burn and i feed light nutes. I'm gonna give them 1 teaspoon of cal mag with dinner tonight and see what they think. They still got 4 weeks to go so maybe 2 doses of cal mag before the chop to see if that helps. Next run I'm upping up the cal mag to 1 teaspoon per gallon per feeding from the start.

I'm getting my colloidal silver generator this week. Gonna start locking down my keeper mom's in seed form for future insurance. I can't let this bubbas gift go. The flavor on it is just amazing. I had some drying 8 days and plucked a lower nuglet to smoke yesterday and it's gotta be one of my favorite flavors of all time. I think in my small ass quarters I'll do feminized breeding atm and start male hunting/breeding once I'm set up in the new place. I think ill take cuts of the males I like and keep them till spring then toss them in the attic to flower a few clones to get a little male pollen to keep. The god stomper male stinks like hazeman elephant stomper, that grape funk.
I'll get some pics of God stompers, double bucks, tpr, orange glue and the others up today when the lights come back on.
