yeah i do smoke cigs....Do you smoke? It kinda looks like nicotine poisoning, if you smoke a cig then touch your plants it can do all sorts of harm.
say it is nicotine poisoning...is there a correction for it??

ok cool....at last feeding my ph was 7.1...so i dont think that was the culprit...my temps are right at 78-80 and rh is 40-45%they are fine under the mh. if you're really concerned about it being too bright, move the light up. the inverse square law will provide a substantial lumen drop by raising the light a few inches.what is the ph when you feed? flushing is usually a last resort, sometimes just a heavy watering can clear things up. if it were me i'd feed them today. not a lot, but i'd feed em. i'd go 3/4 strength to a gallon, but only give them about 16oz. ea. of that gallon of nute solution. it's easier to fix nute burn from pushing them than it is to catch em back up imo.
sweet....ill feed them in a few hours....and will do on my ph...so under 7??by how far?/between 6.7-7?? i use tap water with a ppm of between 38-40 and a ph of right around 7 always....so its pretty good water...and i totally understand the not hurting them because everything is flushed out....ill feed in a few hours and see what happens in the next few days...thanks for all the help iam....ganjaif you feed em a little tonight you'll slow whatever it is that's effecting them. on your next feedings keep the ph under 7.0. do you aerate your water or are you using tap or r/o water? with the flushing you are starting out now with a fairly leached soil, so adding nutes back in won't hurt. you won't be doing them any harm by feeding them tonight. on the next feeding make sure they've dried a bit.
Leaves structure looks well developed except for K and Ca locks but I can't get my self to completely blame nutes as it looks like a rare combination of problems. I can only assume a few things from what've told us in spite of I don't think your growing conditions translate to the current state of your plants...
IMO your solution PH is high, although Cannabis can grow at 7, it's best if kept between 6.2 and 6.8 (slightly acidic, that you can read in every book). Also MG is loaded and adding Blood Meal could've worsen it all making the soil toxic, Too much N and K locks out Calcium, but again that can't be the only thing going on.
In addition it wouldn't be a bad idea to look for pests. Thrips cause similar damage some of your leaves are showing, so it wont hurt to get your pocket microscope and check those white spots.
You said you transplanted 3 days ago, where the plants completely healthy when you did it?
