I'm at a loss. Mag deficiency? Also pH problems?

P.S. To everyone saying that you should correct a cal/mag deficiency by switching from foliar feeding to soil amendments, you have it backwards. Foliar feeding can give the plant cal/mag when it is being locked out in the soil, so if lockout is his problem foliar feeding is the solution, not amending the soil. Amending the soil is good, but it is a slow fix, whereas foliar feeding bypasses lockout and gives the cal/mag straight to the plant immediately. That is WHY you foliar feed.
thanks for that bit of info mate +rep

Yes, foliar is great for a "get at the problem right now" solution. BUT,, as listed in his posts he has done this already and now needs to move on to the long term solution by adding a cal/mag supplement to his feed solution. Any supplementation/correction in a soil type grow will take 5-7 days to "show" in the plant.

Look at the pics again,,,,,I sure don't see any lockout!

Nizza is correct on the FF soil having Dolominte and oyster shell. But, Ace he mixed it with COCO and that needs extra Calcium just like RO does.
Oh I'm not saying that amending the soil is a bad thing, but the fact that he's been foliar feeding with cal means that it's PROBABLY not a cal deficiency causing this. Looking more closely at the first pic it actually looks more like a phosphorus deficiency to me.
