I Split the Grow Tip without Cutting. Worth the Shock with Pics

i try feeding 1/8 strength 18/18/21 tomato plant food.once a week and it just burns them.

that is most likely because your plants are root bound and the pH of your medium is off. the plants look severely nitrogen deficient. you should really think about repotting before you start to flower them. What kind of lighting do you have them under?
 
How long have those plants been vegging? They don't look all that healthy... Topping or fimming by cutting usually has a healthy plant bounce back with two new shoots in a matter of days. How long does your method take?

No offense but it's just odd that you put up such a sensational title and then don't explain what you're doing at all. The only way we can critique, comment, and learn from what's going on is if there is free discussion.

No, they're not two "new shoots". It's the two sites directly below the cut that grow in place of the top cola.
 
if youve never transplanted them... thats a huge part of your issue. also you could consider guano, its an affordable organic alternative to pricey nutes
 
i post more pics in a few weeks when all the yellow leaves are gone(pesticide) i have a ph kit and i check it weekly stays around 7 or yellow slight green colored test solution
 
i moved my plants down(away) 4 to 6 inches, because leaves are green but only the ones in shade from other leaves
so iam thinking light stress,
 
I dont know what ya doing but for some reason it looks like it could be a killer plant! Good luck
 
yea thanks they all have 3 or 4 leaves at each node in about a week the undergrowth should turn them into little bushes
 
transplant those suckers would you?!?!!?

making me cry on the inside. also: get rid of the Foil and your temps might be a bit better.
