my 2c.
The OP should try the KISS method if growing in soil again and start out water only till deficiencies show up.
 
Thanks I was thinking the same with everything I flipped them in to flower exactly 5 weeks ago and I see them starting to swell since ph adjustment. Still look weird but it's what ever at this point. I'll just keep watering and feeding

I run hydro not soil usually never ran it before and from what I read your supposed ph roots organic like hydro due to the soil not really being soil.
roots organik is a soil and your ph is to low 7-8 in soil and you do not ph soil as it buffers your issue is u keep touching and flushing and fucking around giving them calmag in soil when it is meant for a soilless system fucking with ph and god knows what else u have chucked thru it

Stop “ flushing “ ...... every time you TRY to correct ... you end up with a flush.
Which in all actuality is LEACHING ( the medium ) not anything in plant.

I found roots organic tend to differ ph wise bag to bag ( stopped using it ) and only got rid of my bags as a soil conditioner ( raised beds ) but to me the most “ important “ thing you can do is PH what goes in .
Not what comes out.
As long as the ph is ranged to the plant 6.0 - 6.5 then you are good.

IMO .... begin calmag at least 1tsp per gallon with both watering and feeding.
Range ph to 6.3 - 6.5 ( allowing for drift ) and keep it there.

Led grows tend to want less feed as lights don’t allow high transpiration as with more intense hid lighting. I think in the future a better soil choice ( promix / sunshine / FFOF ) can carry your plants better as they are already ammended and prebuffered ( oyster / lime ).
