This is my second time around, first time I was given a very sick plant that I brought back from the dead (so deprived the leaves were WHITE, no chlorophyll) and had decent results. I just want to make sure my babies are taken care of the best they can be; I readily welcome any and all advice! (Nutrients, setup, etc)

Plants are about 2 months old from clones, some new clones in pic. Was initially putting half of them by the window with ambient light until the sun set, then indoor light. The other half outside until the sun set, then indoor light. Was using 400w HPS, just switched to 400w MH. Getting light flickering with the MH, using digital ballast.

Using FoxFarms Ocean Forest soil
Light - 18/6
Temp - roughly 75, got hot for a little bit due to Phoenix weather.
PH - about 6
Watering deep until some water comes out into the pan, waiting until the soil is very dry to water again.


Veg Nutrients:

SensiCal Grow - every watering
Connoisseur Part A & B - every watering
Diamond Nector - every watering
1/4 stregnth Miracle Grow - every 3rd watering
Carbo Load - every 3rd watering
Tarantula - weekly
Piranha - weekly
Voodoo Juice - 3 weeks
Scorpion Juice - 3 weeks

Misting Weekly:

Tarantula
Piranha
Diamond Nector

Bloom Nutrients:

Everything above minus Miracle Grow, replacing SensiCal Bloom
Big Bud Bloom Booster Powder

It looks like you're going a bit overboard with all the nutes. First of all, Miracle Grow is complete garbage and has no place in a marijuana garden. You're using FoxFarms soil which is great stuff. I suggest getting rid of all those nutes and replacing them with the 3-part line of FoxFarms concentrated nutes (GrowBig, TigerBloom, BigBloom). They provide all the nutrition your plants will need. Also, you should probably be misting your plants daily with plain ph-balanced water.
 
Okay, thanks. Miracle Grow is now officially OUT.

My concern was that they wouldn't be getting enough Nitrogen.

Nutes and other stuff:

Voodoo Juice = 5 strains of microbes
Carbo Load = just carbs
Scorpion Juice = viral inhibitor
SensiCal = 2-0-0
Diamond Nector = 0-1-1
Connoisseur A = 4.9-0-3.6
Part B = 1.8-5.1-6.4
Piranha = fungi for root growth
Tarantula = bacteria for root growth


So all told (plus whatever may be in the soil) they're getting 8.7-2-11 for nutes.
