Wow for one you suck at picking out what MG soil to use if you do resort to using MG, should have just went to walmart or wherever and got MG moisture control potting mix and been done with it. MG perlite was a big no no too... Just get most of what you can off with out damaging the roots and replant in something more suitable. Looks like you watered it pretty heavy which released to much MG nutes, I just water very very tiny amounts more often with my seedlings in MG until they put some size on to handle the nutes.
I hate when people do crap like this then blame the soil, if you pick the appropriate type and water correctly for that type (as most MG nutes are water release) it will turn out just fine I always use MG soil and never have these problems and have outstanding results more often than not. I have some easy ryder and diesel ryder seedlings in MG right now doing just fine.

I think you are a lil bit miracle grow biased.

i have a bag of the moisture control and was told to stay away from it unless ive been using it for years.im using it on some tomatoes now since its just been sitting there.

Did you see the pics of the kush i have in MG soil?
they are on the same schedule and one is alot healthier.i havent really been giving them alot of water until yesterday when i flushed all that yellow watery shit out the cups.the prep my ph to 6.5 b4 i give them water.i was told 6.8 is where they needa be. .3 off is causing me all this prob, i dont think so. im preety sure its the soil

6.8 is to high. you are better at the pH you chose...or ended up with. 6.3 is what weve seen to do best with our testings for most strains in a soil medium.

not sure why people think they grow top dank with 3 of 17 elements needed. and wityhout a food grade or pharmacutical grade nutrient source.

They surely do. Mine did get food at 7,5 or even more. Now with more acidic organic nutes for flowering it is dropping (7,0) but they vegged all the way with pH near 7,5. It doesn't mean their growth won't be slower, though.

I use Miracle Gro "potting mix" soil and have done fine. I think it might be from the combination of MG soil and the MG Perlite.

The soil on it's own has tons of nutes but on top of that, the MG perlite has nutes in them also. I used a separate non nute Perlite to add to my MG soil.

Just a guess though.

well no liquid tester out there that ive seen even reads any closer than .5 at a time. and when testing it with any nutes in thew mix its always out. now its adding a colour for food and one for the test solution so when we add 2 colours together we make a completly diff 3rd one.
sure at .2 out its still getting foods but maybe 1 of the elements is almost out of range at that .2 out and will when we dont have a giood ballance of all elements they suffer or may lock that one out all together.

and using mg all you get is 3 of the 17 elements needed. and yes having ph out does slow them if they cant eat all what they need. or it means you sue to much food to make up for the loss. and messes up the ballance in the medium. sure they grow and make bud but when weve tested for efficacy they lack

Plant seeds in very light to infertile growing medium and apply nutrients as the plant becomes sturdier and actually has the roots to absorb them. A peat pellet for instance will grow a seedling to its first set of serrated leaves, as yours is, quite nicely - even if it is unfertilized.

There is always a chance for the product to mess up (i.e. too much nutrients) when using chemicals.

thanks guys,+ rep to the guys who helped out. the diesel has slowed down on the burning. i guess the flush helped her out cuz when i water now the run off water comes out almost clear.

i've grown with mg before and in the beginning you shouldn't water like crazy because mg has so much nut it's not even funny. Another thing is after 4 weeks you can add nut but do not add mg nut because again they have to much in them. So go to a grow store and they will give you a good nut. Trust me they are not stupid they will probably know what your doing and give you a good nut try not to get anything with high nut because your soil is already over feed but if you get the right stuff you will be fine.
