BioGrow contains Ca and Mg according to something I just read. Adding additives can throw off the nutrient balance and create a nutrient lockout. Just a FWIW.

I agree on the less is more, a lesson for the future.
I will give 1tsp/gal next time and see how it goes form there. One question tho... If my calmag is not garbage, it should be enough by itself right? Or is it always advisable to add a lil bit of epsom in flower?
There are 2 charts to look at. The one you saw is for AllMix soil, which is way hotter, hence the low dosage.
LightMix soil follows another chart, alongside coco:

If you’re doing Epsom AND a Cal-Mag, it’s probably too much Magnesium.1 teaspoon per liter should be the right amount, or so I've read around here. 1 tablespoon per liter would be too much. I saw someone confusing those two
In any case, giving epsom salts with every watering could also have damaged the plants. I'll start giving plain water in between like @HydoDan suggested to also treat the nute burn.
