I hate GH nutes, but lotta people get success with them. Flush-n-fix is the way to go, no matter what style grow you employ...lol. Did you get a ppm/EC tester?

an epsom salt foliar spray will cure sulphur deficiencies, with a quickness! I use a 1/2 tsp in my 24 oz spray bottle.

usually overnight. a day, tops. If that is truly your problem, it'll work quick. Not sure the damaged leaves recover, but new growth will be unaffected. I use it as preventive medicine and haven't had Mg or Sulphur deficiency in a while.

Epson salts is mag sulfate, I would check your bottle of Cal mag. On the bottle it tells you if you put x amount you will get x ppm. Make sure you did not get a bad bottle of it. Then if its good I would just spray one plant's branch. If you are locked out adding more will not do you any good. I would just go get your leaf analyzed and call it a day. cost around 45 bucks and your done. I would use a cardy pH meter to help me but they are around 300 bucks. If you were not needing meds i would take one plant and play with it. Don't worry about it dieing it is going towards your education. Learn about making a tonic that would help restore some chem balance in your plant. JK
Rain water is surprisingly high in ppm's
Your plants a bit young for sulfur deficiency What would you think would cause it to use it up?

I personally think lockout, these plants have had no fresh water for 26 days not for even a half a day so they never got any sort of a flush really, and my problems started when I flipped and started the flower nute reg, I wish I would have flushed my res then filled with fresh RO and left it overnight and then the next day added my flower nutes but I didn't....I am learning so much more though and for that it has been worth all the problems, if everything was fine I wouldn't have learned anything, also JK my rainwater was 0ppm's how F-ing crazy is that

I thought I read where you flush your sys out. I change out my rez when I hit 100% add back. With your girls that should take about 8-10 days. When I am in flower week 3 onward it is about 4 days.Get a passive rez when you can. Dump that for sure. Run some pH water for about 12 hrs then refill with your nutes. I am sorry i did not pay more attention.
For your rainwater you must be offshore somewhere or need to recal your meter.
Google plant tissue analysis for something in your area. Maybe ucdavis?

Flush, Flush, Flush...I hate doing it, but I do it every week. It's a task that to me needs to be done in these dwc systems. Not sure why, but it seems to keep the plants nice and happy.
