Sorry man, never used lime so I can't say if or how much it would help with calcium.
I do have a book though that explains how to raise & lower the pH in soil, and it warns against too large an adjustment & using too much lime (dolomite & another that I can't remember the name of off hand). The book sais if you use too much it can do nasty things to the chemical make up of the soil.
If you have some damaged leaves, post a pic & I'll try to identify it for you.
Never used Cal-Mag, but it's a fert so I imagine you can just dilute it into water. I'm sure you can also dilute it with another fert in the water at the same time. Just be carefull not to give your girls too much nutes.

if there is some nutrient antagonism going on, then treating with cal-mag could be bad because you are just treating a symptom, it's best to treat the main cause of whatever problem you are having. For example you could have too much Ca (depending on what veg food you used) and that would in turn cause a Mag def. It's best to treat the main issue, but we dont really know what that is.. post some pictures and we can offer more help.

Like you said about the fertiler there is no calcium. But there is a small amout of it in the soil. The leaves look good. im gonna get a pic. for you to look at. I noticed a few curled down leaves on a few of them but other than that they look good. i Think im just going to water with a three part at 1grow-2micro-3bloom tbsps per gallon and then add a 1/4 strenght cal mg. Do you think i should just water with plain water? For veg (14days).they didnt get anything cause i was in jail and he didnt know what to do other than put lights over plants and water haha.
Some look a little pale green but they are growing serveral colas and about 2+ feet tall. Tomorrow will be 28 days into flower. I think a calcium def. would have showed up by now. i think the promix is providing it will a small amout. They arent stunted. What should i do?
