lol, good luck finding an airport in VT that lands anything larger than an ultralight hahaha. Send Marvin. I'll get him baked on some of the happier Mandala stuff- it should cheer his dolorous ass right up.

I'm stumped at why you say they are dying. The new growth IS really light, and looks tender- too much N is a possibility, but the associated darkening of older growth, combined with under-curled leaf edges, is absent. So any N overdose you might have at the moment is relatively early or mild.

Get your pH back in range. Aim for 6.7 if a true soil, or 6.5 if soilless. I want to say that FFOF may in fact be a soilless. Worth checking to be sure. Be careful about overwatering. It's entirely possible that it is time for a larger home for your plants, too. How long have they been in those pots so far? Soilless peaty mixes have a definite lifespan in pots. When you run up against the end of it, you will see a drop in pH and the K def spotting is quite common.

how much should i seperate the rootball when i transfer? not even 2 months in the pots yet

Plants shouldn't live in the same pot for that long indoors. Read my sticky about efficiency and canopy and the why you should re-pot thing in the FAQs for more of an explanation.

Your medium is old and starting to degrade. The drainage is getting worse as a result, and the buffering capacity of the lime added at the factory is used up, leading to pH drops. New pot with GREAT drainage, plus a fresh soil mix with EXTRA perlite, and you are going to be in much better shape. Don't mess with the root ball. It will be fine on its own.
