I've been lurking for quite some time. This site has been a significant source of information for me as a complete newbie grower. Moved from one State to another, lost my hook-ups, so I decided to grow for myself. As a thirty something year old mother of teenagers I knew I had to be stealth with my grow. I went to Home Depot and built myself a nice little box (4 feet high by 2 feet wide) and hid it in the basement storage room. Germinated 11 bag seeds. Just random seeds from so-so smoke. Wasn't expecting much but they all sprouted. I had them in solo cups. Transplanted to 1 gallon pots when they were 3 weeks old and that is when the problems began. Using MG potting soil and MG perlite so I suspect I gave them a raging case of nute burn. But after staring at hundreds of images I have determined they could be suffering from any and everything. Seriously, if you look at the cannabis diagnosis charts long enough you will convince yourself your plant has about two dozen things wrong with it. So, all that being said I'll be posting pics of my problem plants (that would be all eleven plants) very soon. I'd really like to NOT make the same mistakes on my next grow as I plan to purchase quality seeds. The raggedy plants I'm currently growing are 6 weeks old. About to change the light cycle to flowering. Using CFL's. Thanks for listening and hopefully someone out there can advise me. Crazy thing is, I grew up on a farm. I've grown everything from tomatoes to grapes to barley, soy, corn, berries... you get the idea. Why can't I grow frickin' weeds???

Welcome to RIU, There is a large community of folks here who can help you out.
First of all, Miracle Grow is crap for growing pot.
Try a better soil, like Fox Farms Ocean Forest, mixed with some peat based soil less medium.
Secondly, You will notice a huge difference between bag seed, and good genetics from seedbanks.
This type of "weeds" is not as easy to grow as most would think, you got to know a thing or two to do it right.
Joining the forums is a great was to learn, and share.
Good luck to you
