My opinion, Use better nutes.
May I suggest Fox Farm Organic Nutrients, they work great for me.

Depending on your grow medium. The plant needs food.
Think about it, If you only drank tap water your whole life how would you do?

That plant is relying on you more than a crying baby.

To sum it up... TLC = THC ...... It's mathematics!

Miracle grow is bad indoors. It has synthetic nutrients, its too strong and it causes deficencys. Any time realeased nutes are bad indoors!

im using Miracle-Gro Moisture Control Potting Mix and it saids Absorbs 33% more water than ordinary soils, to protect against over-and under-watering. and Feeds plants for up to 3 months. and the Fertilizer Analysis is
0.21 - 0.07 - 0.14..... would just that work...

Look into compost teas. There are some great organics you can use to make an awesome organic nute. Plus its hard to burn with organics. Just soak organic stuff in water for a 2-3 days and then strain the water.
