The plant has been fed double whammy nutes resulting in nute burn; lose the MG for this phase, it's totally not needed and the rating is not the right for the phase your in anyway. You could bring it back for flow but MG is basically the C student of nutes. It will pass but it's not much of a performer. I once thought MG was fine but then I saw what Fox Farm could do.

Flush the plants; tap water is fine. Use the cold faucet and let in run for at least 30 secs before you fill up, let the water sit out 24hrs or at least overnight. You could also buy distilled water if you don't have time to let water sit. Give a few days maybe a week after the flush for the plant to stabalize ensuring the ph is balanced before nutes are re-applied. Feed through the soil this time. Foliar feeding is best for plants that are deficient. Using that method for regular feeding increases the potential for over dose.
