I'm currently on day 15 of veg, and appear to have what I believe to be either a Mg deficiency or lockout. The leaf edges are curling upward similar to that of heat stress, but my temperatures are fine (76 degrees, 250w hps 13" away from the canopy, I also moved the light up to 18" away to verify it wasn't a heat issue, and it didn't change anything other than slowing the growth down)
I used 2tbsp of Espoma garden lime per gallon of soil in my amended organic mix. I use bubbled tap water which has a hardness of 192 (I don't own a TDS meter so I can't tell you what the specifics are)
What should I do? Use epsom salts or more lime to correct the issue?
***Growth seemed to have slowed down more today, and interveinal chlorosis has started to show up on the first 5-fingered leaf set. And no, I don't have the runoff pH. My mix was balanced at 6.8 before I started to use it. Image attached***
