For 10 gallon rez (not to add to just 1 gallon):
110 ml 3-1-4 This has 117 ppm k
117 k/2 = 59 amount of ca needed. Need 24 more. There is 30 in your tap so add no cacl2.
117/4 = 29 amount of mg needed. Need 11 more. 1/8 teaspoon epsom gal = 15 ppm mg. 11/15 x 1/8 x 10 gallons = 11/12 teaspoon epsom salts or about a teaspoon :)

so 110 mL power plant plus one teaspoon epsom salt in 10 gallons water.

That's what I was saying before to expect.

Your plants are "eating" 5.33:1 cal to mag. Definately going to get mag def. Check your plants. I bet the first symptoms are starting to show on bottom leaves.

Your adding 11 ppm extra mag to your fert now with the epsom salts. Allow soil to dry well and get your ph under control.

Some people have no faith in Sprout...

Imo you could throw more nutes at a ph issue and when youre all done you end up with overfert or you could get the ph in the right range and see what happens.
