plants seem as if theyre slowly dying and i have no idea why

hey ive been growing for about 4 weeks now and for the past 2 weeks ive had alot of trouble with my plants but lately im having trouble with the leaves turning yellow and brown and also alot of problems with them drooping for wat seems to be no reason but whatevr the reason is its slowly killing the plants.i know its not the amount of water because i water them every 2 to 3 days.i also kno its not nutrient difficiency because the last time i waterd them like 2 days ago i used miracle grow plant feeder.at first they seemed to be doing fine but today theyve been very droopy.ive taken the bottom leaves that were brown and yellow off but thats only like 2 leaves from each plant.my light cycle has been a little different for the past few days but not different enough to matter but theyre usually on 19 hours.i have them growing under 2 40 watt flourecents like 2 inches away from the light.the only thing i think it might be is maybe where theyve been growing.they were in my room but i moved them to the living room.the temp. is usually like 60 to 70 F.so please SOMEONE tell me why theyre not super healthy cuz it seems like im doing everything right.

If you have a problem, go ahead and cut-and-paste this list into your post to make it easier for the growers here to help you.

Don't worry about answering every question, but the more information you give, the faster and more accurately we can help solve your problems!

Happy growin'.

You don't need to add nutrients if you just re-potted with Miracle Grow. MG has nutes in it already, and they will last for up to a month.

Are you checking the weight of the pots before watering? The soil might be dry on top, but still wet near the bottom. Droopy leaves usually means over- or under-watering, and crispy leaves starting from the edges and moving inward is usually nute burn.

You will need to get more light also... you need minimum 3000 lumens per square foot, I'd aim for over 5,000...

well i gave the plant i repotted it's nutrients before i switched its pots.i really doubt its water though becuz at the most id have to be underwatering.like i like to wait for the plants' soil to dry out pretty good[not like bone dry] before i water.just wait ill be uploading sum pics soon

They would perk up a couple hours after watering if the problem was under-watering... Any drainage holes in your pots? Did you add any perlite?

well yea they did for like a day but then they started becoming droopy the next day.yea the pots have holes and no all thats in the soil is wat miracle grow put in it.i really wish i could get the pics of them to sync on this computer.but the way they look now is different since i removed the sickly yellow looking leaves.the leaves now are green but thier just really drooping over alot.i would think one of the plants were dead if the leaves on it werent as green as they r.but the only leaves that arent drooping are the premature ones at the very top

I would definitely get some perlite and mix it with the soil... like 25%(if that is still possible). Leaves will also droop due to a lack of oxygen.

i think u mean co2 lol.it seems like in an open room it couldnt really be short of air but ill look up more on if its cuz of the amount of co2

Flush well and drop to 1/4 strength nutes. That MG is way too strong for indoor growing.
