opinions, ya i got a few

First before i bash Miracl-Gro, do not grow with a partner, too many bad things can happen, loose lips sink ships. Ditch your partner, give him the plants and everything else and start fresh.

MG sux for starting out plants, its too hot and heavy with chemicals. but someone will be here to tell you that MG is fine and they have used it for decades..to each their own.

i def agree with ya. MG anything just seems to be a mass murderer. im guessing its super high N levels? and the "partner" is actually just a fam member i asked a favor from.. bad idea.. lol. i just was hoping to find somethin to perk em back up. i already transplanted into bigger pots with fox farm ocean and gave them their first feed with age old grow + GO CaMg. any tips on making em look happy again?

If u transplanted to ocean forest ur on the right step
but ther is no need to add any nutes at this point
ocean forest has enuf nutes to last a month and feeding at this point might burn them heavily
they need to recover
just give them neutral water
the soil will take care of the rest
is it indoor?
wat kind of lighting?

Red spectrum is for flowering
blue spectrum is for grow
try and get like 4 6500k bulbs
that should be good for a wyle
later u mite need to get more tho dude to cover ur area with light

sorry, had red n blue mixed. my flower room has a 6500k x4 CFL n they seem to love it. but yeah, a bigger light for my veggies would be ideal. this is my first indoor op, so im sure theres more mistakes to be made. lol. but thanks for the input guys. ill just give em water feedings for a few weeks n see how they do with the new soil. thanks folks!

Mixing spectrum is a good idea
