got some crazy wilting! i dont know how to stop this... i thought it might be due to nutrient deficiencies so i foliar feed 1/5 strength grow big and big bloom by fox farm to try and remedy the wilting... but it didnt do much at all, or anything in fact.. they were wilting before i transplanted them 3 days ago... any suggestions? strain is some kind of diesel

Looks like you are overwatering them. What is your watering schedule/how do you tell when they need water.
Also, cut back on the foilar feeding and just feed grow nutes every third watering. Unfortunatly, with this plant, too much love is usually the problem.

this was their first nutes ever, and it was foliar fed! theve been nute free for 3 weeks in red cups. i only water when they are dried out, but not too dry. i have a good grasp on when to water. so i am having a real hard time believing that its over watering.

its none of that then. My first guess is over watering issue also.....maybe the bottom of your planters is nothing but mud, and the roots are just now reaching a soaked bottom? Not saying this is the issue, but it would have been my first guess.

def seems like a lack of N. What soil you using, fox farm also? Maybe next time they need water, give them a drench instead of a foliar feed. (although I hear foliar feeding will correct deficiency issues faster then a drench will)

Overwatered, don't foliar feed. Make sure the whole pot drys out and some water flows through. Your flourescent light is not very bright so thy probably will not need water very often.
