Problem diagnosed but is there time to save it?
~sorry about spelling errors, will try to fix for future!~
I started my first 4 plants, they were doing awesome and then we moved, they went from indoor potted to transitioning indoor/outdoor potted. because it was my first time i used these as a test run and used a generic mircle gro soil, but as i am learning (thank you sticky) that soil messes with any kind of trying to fertilize them.
Shiva Skunk was my first she grew to about 15 inches, flowered and she is budding right now. i am trying to get a magnifying glass strong enough but she is defintely getting sparkly. Since the move, her leaves have been drying up and turning brown on the tips, thought it might be sunburn.
a month later:
Blue Dream/GDP/Grapefruit Diesel were next. They were growing beautifully till we moved. the BD is about 2 1/2 feet tall the others are about a little under 2 feet. since the move all of these started with the brown spots like they were sunburned, but they have been here for about 3 weeks now, and they are turning white starting from the inside vein and spreading outward. then browning.
From what I have read i think this is an iron deficientcy but the Shiva is budding, and the other 3 just started to flower. is it too late to treat them? and if not what would i need to do to try to get any kind of yield from them?
I am not looking fro primo yield here, like i said it was an experiment. Just wondering if there is any way to salvage something from them.
Thanks alot for any help!!

Fill out the plant problem form. And some pic's would help a great deal.
You desribe it well but hard not knowing everything and seeing helps alot. Could be the cheap soil and no nutrients.
Oh they are not outside sitting on concrete or a hot deck are they ?

Without knowing the specifics, and no mention of nutes or additives it's impossible to tell.
Fill out the appropriate troubleshooting form, and you'll likely get a better diagnosis.
Something that shouldn't hurt either way, is a shot of molasses. (1 tsp per gallon) Has shitloads of micro's, magnesium, iorn, calcium...and shouldn't interfere with existing nutes in the soil. (which deplete after a couple/few weeks) Would think about resuming nutes at half-strength if you havn't already done so.
You said her leaves have been drying up and turning brown on the tips. Is this twords the base of the plants only?

Like i said this was an expieriment and i didn't really start researching till after i started growing them, backwards yes i know, but i thought it was just like growing a house plant or veggies or something.. oops. but i love my plants and I really want to educate myself and learn to grow them properly. i was just hoping i could still yield something from these guys, i will try the molasses idea, thanks!!
PS an addtion to what i wrote in the original post, after i noticed the water was not evaporating well, i took a small skewer and poked a bunch of holes in the soil then i held water for one day, then rewatered them the next day and they seem to be doing ALOT better. but i still want to make sure they are fed well.. any help is much appreciated
