    Hey bro, my tap is poison too! I know what you are talking about. The only reason to add Cal-mag is if you use Distilled, RO, or Rain water! Now that being said, anytime you try to get a pH reading off any one of these 3 you will get a false reading. Why? Because you have to have OVER 100 ppms in your water to get a accurate reading. All the above have less than 17 ppms. so just to get an accurate reading you have to add something or catch it from the run-off.

    However If you mix your own super mix organic substrate and added dolomite lime to the mix then you DONT NEED any cal-mag at all! Just Plain Water all the way to the end! To check the pH of the super mix, just catch some of the run off!

    At least the symptom did not show up on other leaves, but the spots have definitely gotten much bigger. Tonight I only gave it water. I will post a picture in the morning

    I wouldn't put anything from a bottle, on that mix you listed above. Just clean water. With a mix like that, just transplant, 3 times into larger size pots, from seed to flower. (10 wk photo plant) instead of bottle feeding, and you would be good the whole grow!
    One problem I have found with those super soil mixes is how their mixed. Super Soils have to be tumbled in a cement mixer for a hr or two to get mixed good. Even after being mixed and set to the side, the aggregates will settle if not used soon. If they are not mixed very well, you can have big problems with compaction and lack of oxygen! Say you have 5 pots out of a mix of super soil, 4 plants look super and one doesn't, same mix, the one pot having problems is not mixed well. You can expect pH problems as well! For small soil mixes one can tumble the mix in a 5 gallon bucket with a lid. I think Super soils are the best way to grow.

    As previously mentioned, there was a male plant that grew in this pot for about 8 weeks, I cleaned out the roots and reused it
