Ok, forget Mg, his level is fine, one thing I noticed is the Ca level is way to high, try slowly dropping your Ca to about 400ppm and maintain it there.
another thing is Alk, what is 4.5 Meq in normal measurements?
I keep mine up around 11Dkh.
isn't it funny I have been touting the merits of Mg for about 3 or 4 years now and Bev starts last year and is famous for it
