Oh my. Have you been using all 3 of those at the same time? And how much?

The MiracleGro and the one in the brown bottle should not be used together. Either one or the other at lower strength than what is recommended. But neither one of them is a good nutrient for cannabis. That P/K 13 can also cause issues if you use too much as well. You have a serious nutrient imbalance going on. I don't know what you'd do to fix it with those nutes though at the stage. There is probably plenty of nutrients in the substrate and is that coco? But there is probably some nutrient antagonism going on making some nutrients unavailable to the plants. It also looks like whatever it is soaking wet and possibly anaerobic.

You're going to need to get some different nutrients other than that MiracleGro or the stuff in the brown bottle for your next grow. But with this one you're probably just going to have to ride it out.

Thanks guys, this was my first attempt ever and had 0 clue with what I was doing.
I originally used the baby bio (brown bottle) but then stopped when I found out how bad it was. then i used the pk mixture but then realised, after buying, that it was supposed to be used with an existing bloom fertilizer. I got my gf the miracle grow as part of her birthday (for all her house plants) and she suggested using some of that. I have only tried using miracle grow within the last week.
what do you guys think I should do now? stop all nutes, change them, try different ones. bare in mind that I am on week 7 of flower from this Friday

i think that my plan is that i am going to just give it water with the pk only from now but buy the correct things for my next time.
anyone have any advice on nutrient selection and how to use?

I wouldn't use just the P/K, you'd be better off with just a little MiracleGro as it at least has micronutrients and nitrogen. Plants use nitrogen to produce flowers they just don't use as much as they do in veg. Also, nothing you've been feeding has any calcium, sulfur, or magnesium in it. All of which are secondary nutrients needed by the plant. You need a balanced nutrient that contains all the macro, micro, and secondary nutrients. There are numerous 2 and 3 part bottled products, or 1 and 2 part dry nutrients. You don't need a dozen bottles just some base nutrients.

I would just stop worrying about this grow. Finish it out but don't stress too much over trying to fix anything. The time for fixing has gone by. You're going to get what you get. There isn't much you can do at this stage in the plants life to change the end result. It is disappointing but you know what you did wrong so just correct it next time and you'll do much better.

Good luck.
