i actually did start with mg, first started with mg starter soil, then with organic beacuse when i transplanted my seedlings, the ffof burned them.

it's possible, but this does look so classic for the MG time release burn
the damage may have been done in the MG starting soil, and showed after transplanting
i use the MG organic garden soil, which can work very well, it is quite acidic, some dolomite helps to 'sweeten' it a bit

i wouldnt use that miracle grow garbage on house plants ............your plant looks toasted .......cut those bad leaves off put it under 24 shut the door and cross your fingers ...........i wish u luck but looks like a loss

I had em on miracle gro and when they were they looked good,when i transplanted them the first time to ffof it burned them, so i got mg organic choice n they were growing well. I transplanted them like 3 days ago to ffof n turned worse,

interesting time line of events, that does give us a lot more detail
some have excellent results with MG soil with the tiny fert dots, some have problems, sounds like you were doing well
there is going to be some transplant shock, though this beyond that
i don't use the FF soils, but i'll give its due that it should not produce such a burn for a relatively large seedling
but shit happens, the only thing that comes to mind is when a bag of soil has some small holes/tears and it's exposed to rain/water
when that happens, it's possible for nutrients to be dissolved, than concentrated, that can burn if you're unlucky enough to have that situation

u should change soil, and flush them like sugested above. i do think u can save them. what i would do(but thats just me),is would go get some soilles. sunshine mix #4 and some ff light seed warrior. first watering flush the soil. then start adding a vary small amount of nutes. if u cant get any soilless then get some soil thats not hot for your babies and water.

You'll be fine new soil doesn't matter what kind rinse it well. Put it in that cut off the dead dry leaves just don't go over board with cutting. I'd also go 18/6 on your lights. These things are tuff.

i doubt its the ffof .. Ive clones straight into ffof before with no problems.. and no burns. Prob was burnt before transplant from the miracle grow.. then the extra stress of transplant pushed it over the edge.
