I use heavy 16vegg a and b they have 4 different calcium and magnesium supplements in it and I still add all mat to b on the safe side and I still gave me this deficiency right after transplant I noticed it...the day I transplanted I only did 5ml of cal mag

I’m going to tell you the most important thing for me was runoff. Make sure to get 10%+ runoff each watering to remove salts from the soil. Salts is probably the #1 cause of deficiencies next to improper PH. Ever since I started watering to runoff my plants have never looked healthier. With a ph balanced soil all you have to do is feed and water to runoff. And another thing i’m doing is using distilled water instead of ph’ed tap water, again plants have never looked healthier

Another important thing is to slowly upgrade the pots to avoid overwatering. Roots can only absorb what they touch. I usually upgrade 3-4 times

You should look into super soil where it works start to finish then you don't need to add bottled nutrients.
