They wake up in about 2.5 hours so hoping to get some good advise and put it to good use as soon as the bitches wake up ;)

In the beginning I did till runoff...now not so much because of the time it took to dry..the big pot was dry this morning and I tossed in a healthy amount of nutes water...I've been trying just to water by weight of the bucket...little one I was planning kn transplanting today but after seeing the problems I'm hesitant as I don't want to stress it while it's having problems

Not soil..promix hp growing medium

same thing imo. promix is good stuff and i think you should not have fed them anything. I have girls right now in promix and they are in the 7 week of veg and they are lush, green, growing strong, and loving life. I have only given them tap water and they are doing awesome. I couldn't imagine them looking any better, so why would i feed them when they are't asking for food yet? I so think you may have over fed/sprayed them sir. maybe others can chime in and give their inputs too

That's it,the pots will take longer to dry,until they fill up with roots.. sounds like it's some dry spots in that big pot.

Definitely uproot that lil one for sure.

Well if it was dry spots I should see some rebound when they wake up if that's the case correct? And I'm all for transplanting jack like I said wanted to do it this morning before they went to bed...if you think she'll be ok with transplant while looking like a bag of shit I'll go for it bro haha..any suggestions for the trans?

Agree with everything that's been stated. ProMix has a slight charge of nutes that should last at least 10 days. And I believe rhizotonic is a root stimulator - not really effective as a foliar.

Up pot the small one and give them some good clean fresh water and let em be. They should recover.

I was under the understanding that a growing medium has no nutrients in it. ..

They've been in my possession for 2 weeks now ..but both are little older then that exact age not known but both should be around 2-3 weeks old I'm assuming

I thought that too but a friend told me differently. I decided to try and he was right. But don't take my word for it. try it your self on your next run. I really don't think the plant fairy came in the middle of the night and pissed on your plants.... Im sticking to my opinion on the over feeding. your light and height are fine. temps and humidity are in check. sounds like you have air exhaust so....plant fairy or soil. after all, you did say u put some shit in the soil.

You may also want to look at raising your humidity as well. I think I can read on your monitor in the pic it saying current rh is 26% and has a low of 12% and high of 47%. Also it shows on that monitor your temps low is 62 and high is 94, If these numbers are accurate I would try and get your environment locked in as well.

Wouldn't go by the lows and highs as that temp gauge been around for awhile never reset it...but humidity is around that area..like I said temps stay 76-79 lights on and 67-69 lights off...humidity stays the same ..when I water it goes to 35 or 49 percent briefly before coming back down...I can put a humidifier by an intake but I'd rather not as its just more hydro for two little plants...think it's absolutly necessary?

No, it isn't necessary. As long as your aren't seeing massive swings then your temps are fine. 26% RH is low IMO for veg, I prefer to keep it around 50-60% for veg and drop it to 35-45% during flower.
