I’m curious what might be causing this.

These are indoor plants, in Mother Earth Groundswell soil.

Watered with dechlorinated tap water, pH 6.5, and I use Terp Tea bloom on them, with about 1ml of calmag per gallon of water.

I am in about the third week of flower. Is this an issue, or just something normal as nutes are pulled from leaves for the buds?

If your soil is tired a tea isn't going add much, especially the macros. Teas are meant to be a supplement.
Most people top dress fertilizer when they flip so the organics have time to break down and be ready for the heavy budding stage.

If you're not running pure organics the, only thing that will work immediately are soluble salt ferts, GH, Dyna-Gro....etc.

So if I’m using Terp tea I would want to use something as a base like Fox farms or something? I thought Terp tea was the whole thing and it’s all I’ve been feeding up to this point.

Yes, you need to supply macros. Teas are supplements mostly designed to boost soil health by introducing beneficial microorganisms and sometimes hormones from extracts like alfalfa or kelp.

Terp Tea Bloom has an NPK of 3-7-4 which is almost the same as Fox Farm bloom liquid. I’ve been thinking of switching to a liquid any way. I don’t know what’s going on with my grow and there is hardly any info on Roots Terp Tea
