Newbie Grower Needs Some Help!

Hey all! So I need some help figuring out where I went wrong and how to correct it and avoid the same problem in the future. The biggest and busiest is the OG Kush. The second largest, and most yellowed is the older King's Kush. And the second King's Kush is in the big 2 gal. The last one seems to have taken off since I transplanted it and the roots had time to reach down into the SuperSoil on the bottom half of the pot.

The bigger 2 plants are still in roots organic soil. They are about 35 days old. They saw lots of topping/FIM'ing and LST.

I wasn't feeding any Cal/Mag and was using distilled water. Now I'm using tap water and a little cal/mag sometimes, always pH'd between 6 and 7. They've been feed a combination of AACT's and Botanicaire nutrients. The plan is to transplant into 2-3 gal pots with 50% supersoil for the final transplant.

I'll attach a journal of all that they've been fed. I think I did too much. The second round of seedlings is doing much better than the first round already.

Thanks in advance for any help/advice!

Here are the feeding schedules

I think I fed them too much and gave them too much at the beginning. They seem to do good whenever I back off of the nutes and foliars and things.

The second round of plants all seem to be doing much better. Gave them some cal/mag early on and a super light dost of nutes at week 2-3. Even waiting that long for nutes - they started to yellow. So think i need to start feeding slightly earlier, and lighter.

stop fertilizing it

water heavy with plain water and 1/2 tsp Epsom salt per gallon 1x and then 1/4 tsp Epsom per gallon salt every other time
id recommend you lay off the teas for the time being

a good soil should provide 4 weeks of water only nothing else and by then the plants 2ft tall

lay off the tea all together for now and get your fertilizer straight

tell me what the npk % amounts are for each bottle and how your mixing it per gallon

also give me the calcium and magnesium and iron % amounts from each bottle

so that when you do begin fertilizing again... its balanced!

I got away from the forums for a little while. Had one male, but the other is now 17 days into flower! Had to make room for newer better plants. Probably shouldn't have flowered her yet, but I like experimenting! Any tips? Got lots of yellowing going on.

I am using Botanicaire Pure Blend Pro, Liquid Karma, Silica, and GO CalMag. Have some maxicrop liquid seaweed too.

Here are a couple pictures. any input is much appreciated!

Here's one of the plants yesterday - any ideas what's going on? I fed her 1/4 dose of Pure Blend Pro, Liquid Karma, Silica, and CalMa.

Any idea what's going on? It's about 18 days old. Just got its first dose of nutes. Overwatering issue?
