yeah there's your problem right there

flush it properly (3 times water the volume of the pot), let dry and start feeding at low dosage

I second asaph on this. Miracle Grow has time-release nutes, and is resulting in nute burn. Consider a soil without nutrient in your next grow.

thats a serious case of nute burn flush your plants and just use water for a few days till you see new growth then re-introduce nutes to the plants slowly at first then building up to stronger and stronger when u fertalize a plant wait and see if it takes the nutes in b 4 u fertalize again

hmmm

the problem with time release nutes is that i suspect flushing them can make the problem even worse, as they are activated by water
i don't really know how it works though

You may activate some of the nutes in the soil, but will wash out many of the salts that have already been released. Flushing is the best and only way forward.

fox farm ocean forest has been working well for me so far, I just switched from promix. I'm not greatly impressed with their food yet but the soil is working out very nicely

I depends on your style (organic, soiless etc.) and the number of plants you grow. Here is a good link to an organic soil recipe on this site:
https://www.rollitup.org/subcools-old-school-organics/44686-subcools-super-soil.html

I grow in Promix with some added perlite-- soiless. The advantage is that nutrients are completely controlled and the medium has great aeration.
