Please Help!!

Hello, Im new here and looking for some help with my plants. I transplanted some seedlings into bigger pots and used the jiffy seed starting mix but ran out 3/4 of the way though, I was in a pinch so i decided to use some soil from pots that i had used to flower plants a couple grows back. I had cut the plants and left the soil in the pots in the garage. So i guess my questions are:
what defeciencies am i dealing with?
Too much/ too little nitrogen? cal/mag?
Iron, Molybdenum defeciencies??
Going forward do I need to reammend the coco and cook again outside before reusing?

Ive looked through countless images and posts of deficiencies, difficult to diagnose.

The soil mix i made last year consisted of COCO, Perlite, EWC, Mushroom Compost, Forest Humus, Kelp Meal, AlfaAlfa Meal, Crab Meal, Fish Meal, Cottonseed Meal, Dolomite, Azomite, and Humic Acid. ~ 1 cup of everything except the mite's for 3 bags of coco

Thank You in advance for all you help if you take the time to look at this

Did you flush old soil prior to potting? I can notice magnesium deficiency from a quick glimpse. But id say you possibly may have no goodness left in that soil anymore? And the plants require you to give them everything they need......? If it does still have goodness in the soil then it may be high in pk from flowering, hense the mag deficiency/lockout. I would personally flush the soil right out if you havent done so already and give them fresh ph'd nute/water solution. With a little extra cal mag. Check ph run off aswell.

Thanks for the response, greatly appreciated.Aside from the flush when the plants were flowered the soil i used was not flushed again until now, since i noticed the deficiencies. I am new to living soil / no-till Living Soil. From your response it sounds like i do needed to flush and reammend the coco prior to using.

Yes, thats what i would of done/do then start from scratch. And knowing what youre putting in is pretty much what their getting fed.

Seems soo obvious now, I thought it would be fine because instead of chopping all the way i am Re-vegging this Banana OG and it was grown the same soil and doesnt appear to have any deficiencies maybe it has a life of its own going on. pic3.jpg

From my experience, when revegging, give her more veg time than usual. Wait till youve got a decent amount of 5/7 leafed leaves before flowering and no topping needed!! Looks good man!

thank you for the help and kind words. You are not kidding about not needing to top. I think I will do this to all plants I want to become mothers. the clone output is tremendous

Yea it is haha. Just remember the more you top or clone the more heads youll have but if done too much those heads will be like solid popcorn buds if not vegged long enough before put into flower ;)
