so just to finish this off and for anyone who may read this in the future...
got my first ever e.c. meter yesterday and now believe ive found the solution to most of my problems
only ever bothered with checking ph as was told dont need to worry about e.c. in soil
after checking my water and then the feed and run off im pretty sure that ive been overfeeding my plants for ages thinking they had a deficiency
my water is 0.61 so far too high to start with
this prob explains why most of my seedlings get twisted leaves?!?
have brought an inline pond water filter to sort this
my runoff e.c. readings were all around double (highest was 2.28) what went in (1.01) so very much doubt i had a calmag deficiency in the first place
more than likely too much than not enough
the only plant with a e.c. runoff slightly close to what went in (1.25) is also the healthiest looking of the 8
so if ur having similar problems and read this because of the calmag title and u aint got a e.c. meter GO GET ONE!
