I've given them nothing but that cal-mag since transplant on some apparently horrible advice from here. Mostly sticking to another forum now because of the amount of bad advice and just people being dicks here.

Sorry to hear about the issues, I know it can be frustrating. All free advice is worth what you pay for it 
I always double check info I get for consistency and if in doubt I don't do it.
As far as people being dicks sometimes its hard to tell online what someones true intentions are. Best to blow off the rude ones and keep and eye out for the helpful ones!
Best of luck, hope your plants are doing better.

Which forum? Though I have gotten great advice here at times, I certainly agree on the latter.

They're doing great despite me feeding them horrible ph'd water. see what horrible things ph 6.5 water can do to you babies. you can see in that third one what the cal mag did, it burnt the shit out of one, another one yellowed a bit but i had them looking so lush and beautiful green before i added that. Day 16 here.

I've been trying for days to find out if this was from the cal-mag or from something else with coincidental timing. Had hundreds of view on three different forums and no one knows by looking at it and the circumstances what caused it. Or no ones willing to share but the general growing community is cool as hell so i'm leaning to no one knows. These marks showed up about 5 hours after i used the cal-mag and all of the plants except birtha who is one of the two damaged, the worst of the two, Were perfectly healthy. Birtha has always tried to grow out only one side. But there's definately been some damage done from something. it hasn't gotten any worse or any better it has stayed exactly the same. It looks like some of the new leaves on birtha might be coming in half yellow too.

Still ph'n my water. . . Never did find out what causes the half leaf coloration like that, still thinking it's genetic since no amount of flushing or ph changing does it. it's all balanced, it was acidic in the beginning though but it was because i wasn't ph'n the food water after i added the food i was doing it before. All in all i think it's safe to say it's ok to ph your water to 6.5-7 since it's the optimal range for ph in soil.
