looks like yiour overdoing the plants with nutes, mg already has enough nutes in it to last about 4 weeks, you need to be feeding straight water and then when the plants need nutes start on only very small dose and work your way up. ive never grown with mg but ive heard its ok if used properly and taken care with. i dont know about flushing at this stage because that could make things worse. if the leaves are green (cant tell) and just burned on tips then do as i said about backing off the nutes but if the plant is yellowing then you have nutrient lockout with overdoing nutes.
let me know

as for why your plants are growing slow it could be to do with the humidity and extra heat because of the bigger bulb. what are your temps and humidity and are u supplying fresh air to them.

I have never had much luck growing with miracle grow. My plants would turn yellow most of the time, like they were unable to uptake nutrients. Usually the bag will say that it feeds up to a month, so you shouldn't use any extra nutrients during this time. Looks like you have good air flow with that oscillating fan, so if the room isn't getting too hot and you have lots of fresh air coming in you can rule that out as a problem. I would cut back on the light nutrient regimine you have them on and just give them plain ph corrected water. What kind of nutrients are you feeding them? I don't reccommend using miracle grow nutrients, the can easily burn your plants, some of the leaves look like they have some burn starting. give em a good flush for a few days and they should start greening back up. most growers will add perlite to their medium to aerate the soil and to improve drainage so if you transplant them you might consider doing this.

Pics would help, for sure...With MG products, you wouldn't typically want to use additional nutes this early (5 weeks)....as their products usually come 'pre-nuted"....Could you be "over-nuting" your babies?.....How far way is your light source?..What is the size of the space that you working with....is it too hot?.....Consider these questions & remember that you can find a lot of answers HERE

Good Luck, I hope you find a solution that works for you!!

I've used Miracle Gro Moisture Control with GREAT results...the only extra thing I would use would be blackstrap molasses & I would use it start to finish....

^^what they said^^...and veg longer, even for a 150w, a little longer.

well my temps dont go about 85 and the humidty i dont know what it is,but i dont think its bad.ive been using biobizz nutes biogrow once for veg and biobloom twice for the past 4 days its 2-2-6 or something,so not to strong and a small dose,the plants r green just the light is making them look yellow.thanks for all the help.i hate MG soil going with FF OCean Forest next grow.\

plenty of fresh air door stays open during lights on which gets them a constant ammount of freshness,heat is fine and shit i just worry alot.the light is about 9-11 inches from the tops and its not to hot on them lower it will burn them,i think it might be the bulb its not the right color tempertaure i dont think we just bought a new special HPS bulb for plants,so hopefully that helps

if youve got them in flower now and the bulb looks orangey then its fine, have you got a fan in that room to keep them a bit cooler, i always try to keep the temps below 80(easy for me we have shit weather), try and get as much cooler air in there as you can and cut back on the nutes and youll be fine,
also dont worry so much, everything will work out but if you panic easy and do silly things that will go against the grow.
and no more nutes!
good luck

thanks,yea i got a fan on them babies.i do worry alot and it sucks i just want to have some bud havent smoked in moths!!!will i even get anything off these babies they 6 inches

MG produces so many soils, it has 2 organic ones - MG Organic Garden soil and MG Organic Potting soil
they are quite different, i use the garden soil with good results

Brother...Be patient....Enjoy the fruits of your labor.....

thanks ill try,cant wait to get some buds on them

Rep me dude, this is definatly an over nute problem, pic 7 shows it on the leaves and when you overnute you make the plant more susceptable to heat burn. Probably take a few weeks to turn round so like everyone said let the soil dry in between waterings and don't add any nutes. Yes you can grow in miracle grow but no need for nutes, at least you know what nute burn and lockout look like for the next grow. Try a seedling soil for the whole grow if you find potting soils are too hot, these seedling soils have less nutes, although some can be a bit ott on the nitrogen. I can't get fox farm here but dosen't it do a low nute variety for seedlings and a higher nute one for mature plants.
