like bc has stated, too late to do anything, the changes that need to be made and full recovery will be over when your time to harvest will be.
pick up some cal mag from the hydro shop.

adding more lime to supplement, that depends on how much lime is already in the mixture you have, did you pre mix it or was it already there?

Like bc has stated, plants need to be in the proper pot size, because your plants can mimic a nutrient related problem when your plants are rootbound.

too much lime will cause problems with the way other nutrients are absorbed, it will be like mimicking you use hard hard water to water them depending on the amount though.

I mixed the lime into the soil when I prepared it. The only thing is I used pelletized lime, (which is mixed with clay) and mixed it to the proportions that it was pure lime. Im hoping that if I add a little more in to the mix I should be good for next round. That and I won't let them get half as big. Thanks again for all your help! :)

If you don't let them get as big and add more you shouldn't have any problems, given that your pH Is in check and so forth. Next time you should not have any problems.

How tall are your plants and what size pots are they in?

They usually end up getting about 3 ft. tall in 3 gallon pots, but this time they got to be 4 plus feet tall in 3 gallon. I ran out of 3 gallon pots too, so some of them are in 2 gallon. I'm sure this had to come into play with the deficiency.
