Fox Farm Big Bloom not for veg. Cal-Mag has some nitrogen. 3 ml/gallon. Also add 1/2 tsp epsom salts well mixed into water. pH 6 runoff seems too low in soil. Your containers are ridiculously small. 1/2 gallon? Get some minimum 1 gallon containers. Forget perlite it's crap and 1/3 of your mix? Use just FFOF why mix in perlite? When you transplant you need to make the hole the exact size needed using your pot that it is in to actually make the hole. Enlarge it just a smidge. Gently put the plant into the new hole and sprinkle dirt to fill the small gap. Basic stuff yet most don't even know how to transplant without "shock". Keep your pH around 6.5 in soil and don't overwater. Steady eddy it. The Cali-Magic whips the socks off of Cal-Mag it's lower in N and higher in Cal and Mg. Throw in 1 tsp molasses along with your 3 ml Cal-Mag with no other ferts and see what happens.

i'm pretty sure FF's big bloom is for use throughout veg and flower. i may be mistaken, but i think it says on the bottle and feed chart to use it through veg and flower.
and there is ZERO reason to add epsom salt to your solution if you're using cal-mag...
why mix in perlite to FFOF? because FFOF retains a lot of water just by itself. i've used FFOF for years, switched to roots organic, but i'll be switching back to FFOF AND i plan on adding a little perlite to help with drainage/aeration.
and pH 6.5 is a bit higher than i'd personally recommend.
So, you think FF Big Bloom by itself with RO water during veg was a good idea? Apparently not. It's a micronutrient product.
A pH of 6.5 is fine in soil. Who made you the expert on such things anyway?
The epsom salts add sulfur which he may be lacking, in addition to Mg.
Roots Organic? LOL. Yeah tell us more about your expertise. Got Gnats?
