Just goes to show. You think you're doing it right regards chemicals, but find there are still downfalls to being self sufficient.

I agree there are downfalls. I also think if you only came up with 1 element out of balance you must be doing a lot of the right things. I firmly believe that you have a much better chance at getting close to optimal nutrition from growing your own nutrient dense produce than you will ever get purchasing from industrial agriculture or even some decent farmers. At least now you can work to increase the magnesium in your soil.
