Here's what you need to post to get quality help on your grow.
(1) Give images under metal halide or incandescent (no hps).
(2) Give complete synopsis in one post telling us all the details.
(a) substrate
(b) nutrients
(c) additives
(d) age
(e) strain
(f) environment (specifics on temperature swings, images of habitat, ducting, humdity, etc...)
(g) miscellaneous
Now you will have a chance of getting meaningful support because most people here would like to help you. Unfortunately without this info all we are doing is guessing. If you decide to use the wrong guess you may end up potless.

over-watered and poor air circulation is my guess.

Certainly is, I'm guessing you have up-sized container by now?.
Also, check the bottom and cut the circles of root...in an X pattern. This will release them to grow downward once again.
And I would switch to that 10-10-10, the other 2 are not really designed for cannabis.

STOP FEEDING!!!!
TOO SOON FOR FLOWERING FERTILIZERS!
further it sounds like youre saying you put the fertilizers on the soil and then water it in...
AWW HELL NO!!!
NEVER DO THAT!
mix your fertilizers in water, then put that water on your plants. thats why they are water soluble.
the plant is trying to maximize leaf area so it doesnt die from nitrogen toxicity.
give it plain water for a week and the problems will disappear
unless you are using a soilless mix you should not need to add anything to your water for at least another month!

the bubbling between the veins and dark bluegreen coloration are a result of TOO MUCH NITROGEN.

thats almost as bad. mix the fertilizer in the whole volume of water and apply it to the plant, otherwise you get hotspots and dead zones in your soil mix.
i usually use osmocote pellets, since they stay on the surface and dissolve over waterings like a Tit Tac, and if you put in too much you can pick it out easily.
when i use a water soluable fertilizer i use it at 1/4 the recommended dosage until the plant demands more, preparing it for each pot based on their size and the water retention of the soil. a 5 gallon bucket of Miracle grow potting soil will take up as much as 2 gallons without becoming too soggy, and a 75/25 mix of coco coir and perlite can hold double that in the same bucket easily.
then i only water when the plant insists it's time. giving the plant the 40-50% of it's soil volume in water as needed. remember you water the soil not the plant, and cannabis uses more water when it's hot and sunny than it does when it's cloudy and cool.
its the same for tomatoes, corn, cucumbers strawberries and any plant. too much water or fertilizer kills even faster than too little.
if you think you have given it enough water or fertilizer, you have given it WAY to much, if your worried you havent done enough, your probably still overdoing it slightly.

That might hold true if you are an idiot and cannot understand directions for watering or fertilization. I think I have given my plants optimum water and nutrients, but according to you I have already have given them "way too much" and they are obviously on their death bed. Because if I think I've done it right, that makes me wrong. Pics from today to follow

way to get butthurt over advice for noobs, not even directed at you.
enjoy the sweet sting of your persecution complex bro.
next time ill just tell the noobs to eat a dick, and become better gardeners by themselves.
should i also push them down the stairs or steal their lunch money?
