Alright, so I've run into a salt build-up or magnesium deficiency. I was told to do a flush. Here's what I'm working with:

Buddy of mine I talked to said it was likely a magnesium deficiency due to the use of dolomite lime. Apparently, dolomite lime is calcium and could create a nutrient lockout of the magnesium. I asked if it worked the other way around, if there was too much magnesium, could it cause a calcium lockout, to which I was surprised with a "no" answer. Learn something new everyday.
Either way, I figured I'd run it by my sub'd peeps before I did anything. She'll be due for a watering tomorrow anyway, so if I need to flush, it will be right on time.
