first problem is you dont know your ph. second if your feeding if plant food(not designed for cannabis) your going to have problems, possibly root burn which i think your going through. also you dont need to feed them plant food every watering. when you mix nutrients the water becomes very acidic which probably is doing damage to your root system. all of your plants are going to follow the same road as your bad ones. my suggestion is to read and learn how to grow cannabis rather than throwing a seed in some walmart nursery dirt and using nutes designed for the yard.

I have read almost EVERYTHING out there, BUT all i hear is (under ferd, over ferd, over water. I didnt buy wall0mart dirt!! I'm useing good soil and if i could figuge out how to post pic i would, plants are VERY fat, at least 2 of them, Thanks, BUT i didnt just through some seed in some cheap dirt. I have full light kit, 400w hps, and 400w Mh. fanns exust, lights. I was told that a food, nut. of 24-8-16 would do fine, Thinking of getting a 30-10-10- for rest of veg?? good idea?? also i just flushed all plant with 2 Gal. of water each.

imo "scotts potting soil" is wallmart, or target or even homedepot dirt, sometimes even in grocery stores. if you read everything on this site you would had known that ph is an important thing in mj grows and prolly would have got a meter before you started. owning a 400 watt light doesnt mean you have all the equiptment you need

Yea bro lol cigs is right, from how you been describing your grow and what ur using seems like u got a lot to learn.. ONE of the biggest mistakes noobs make are over under watering & over feeding ESP when your feeding in that crapy soil that doesnt drain as well as others and the salts sit in your soil for a while.. Best advice i can give you is go grab some FOX FARM ocean floor soil, transplant your girls ta that and get some BASIC cannabis nuets.. And make sure their in at least a 2.5-3 gallon potter.. And without a doubt GO GET A STANDARD PH TEST KIT ASAP!!!! PH is the most crucial aspect of watering and feeding your babies.. Second is your ppm but one thing at a time make sure your PH is between 5.7 and 6.3.. Good luck my man :thumbsup:

I use scotts premium for alot of my other gardening. I know its ph always runs about 6.4-6.8 I am sure on that. Wrong nutes.
