HELP PLEASE!!!

Keep doing what your doing, keep in mind air exchange for grow space. It is important to cycle that air. When it comes to the plants you fed, it was likely just over feeding. The soils should have been sufficient with just water for quite a while. I would say just water them and they will likely come back fine. What size pots are you going to put them in?

I may have to remove more soil from the roots of the ones that don't show any progress... they're going From cups to 1 gallons now,but i will be transferring them into 5 gallons before its over. I am definitely thinking airflow now and will probably install a window fan or two into the wall of the shed...it does get a little swampy here in the summer at times.

As for your plant issues. I can't see much of anything in those pictures. Are the ones with problems the ones your holding in your hand and growing in soil? If so what soil. Those plants are not that big. Could just have a touch of nute burn. Transplanting them from the cups to the bigger pots should help. Just give them plain water. They won't need to be fed if you just put them in new soil for a couple weeks. But by then you'll need to transplant them to bigger pots.

Don't overwater and stop spraying them with Miracle-Gro

Good luck

Yes,the first 6 or so(the first few being the worst) have browning/yellowing tips on some leaves. I will giving them water only for the next couple of weeks. I also will move away from miracle gro and opt for a specialized feeding product. Do you have any recommendations?

I use the General Hydroponics professional series but the 3 micro, grow and bloom are great. There are many great products out there. Depends on how you want to grow. I am all for coco but the next guy will talk soil or super soil or all organic. All have their merits and personal preference comes into play. Tine to do some reading and decide on a direction. No decision is wrong as long as you learn.

Lol...i actually just received the general hydroponics 3 pack earlier this evening as will as a soil test kit and ph up&down. I will test the soil and runoff water level & go with water only for the next couple of feedings. When i see the nutrient levels of the soil decrease I'll start them in the micro,grow,bloom as directed... Thanks for all of your help!

My Pleasure. Good luck and keep us posted.

I believe my situation is worse off than i originally thought. The spots that were yellow/brown are now like a burnt orange rusty color. I was looking online and saw where someone had a similar looking plant and was told that it was rust. The comment went on to explain that rusty was a fungus and can take out whole crops. This prompted me to take closer looks at the rest of my plants and i noticed that more are starting to develop the yellow/brown tips. Could this be rust spots? If so, how can i fix the issue? I'm posting a pic of the one that's the worst off.

It doesn't look like it to me. Rust on plants would likely show up as spots that raise up. At least that's how I understand it.

Ok! Thanks for the reply...i might just be paranoid. I just saw that more were developing the spots and stated getting nervous.

Things usually tend to get worse before they get better. Keep an eye on the new leaves, if they develop ok than you have gotten past your problem.

Will do! Thanks again!

That doesn't look fungal. A lot of nutrient issues that afflict cannabis plants are often described as looking like rust spots.

Try posting pics under natural light. The blurple light makes it hard to diagnose anything.

Here are a few my friend.

Update...
Good news and bad news. I believe the 3 are recovering from the over watering and nutrient burn they suffered at my inexperienced hand. They started drooping and getting yellow/browning on the tips and edges of a few leaves each about 3 days ago. I switched them into 1 gallon pots and changed their position in the lineup. This evening i noticed they had perked up and developed some new growth.(pics below)
Now for the bad news...
I saw algae growing on a container that one of the other ladies was in,so i started to transplant it into a different,bigger pot. During the transfer i saw the algae was on some out the roots as well and had to gently "rinse" them. I removed as much soggy soil and algae as i could from the plant and placed get in her new home. Needless to say she isn't too happy,and looks even worse than i can describe.(bottom pic). If anybody has any advice/wisdom they care to share with a novice, I'm all ears.
