Greetings.

What is the medium (Coco, Soil,Hydro, etc) ? Is that MG soil?

How long these plants growing?

What ya feeding them and how often?

What is the PH when feeding?

How often do you water and why do you water at that time?

What is the EC of the solution you're dumping on them?

Tell us about your set up and what phase you are in, please.

Is that black strap molasses you are using?

*Why the MG? (Can't get a hold of proper nutes or mediums?)
If this is MG AP, it's 24-8-16(pending answer)

Warm to you water is about 90 degrees plus, not so fun for the young plants(O2); they would like water around mid 70's.

In veg I use a 24-6-12 + 1.2% Mg @ 1.5 EC @ 5.5 PH
Flower I use 16-6-26+2% Mg end at 1.8 EC @6.275 by day 56-63
I don't add calcium because the tap is hitting at 0.7 EC and I supp with rock dust and lime.

You said 2 months up there?? what cycle are you in? Veg?

Yes 2 months in vegation is it not good to keep in vegation that long. My ph was like 6.3. . When I tested soil it was neutral. Yes I know MG siol not good . At time in this small town MG was only source I plan on making a trip to get quality siol

MG feeds maybe 2 months max.
Bro I take mama bushes out the veg room that have vegged for 10 months so long vegs is not a problem you can veg forever if you like.

Think the MG is depleted a bit and you need some food at a proper EC for the size. Those babies look small so don't need much food but need some N to get them going. Soil would feed at every other water to keep salts down.

The reason I asked if it was Black Strap was it has a higher Ca/Mg content but looks like you are good.

Thinking on this for a minute, honestly hard to call from the 3 pix and lack of detail on environmental.

Thinking its the soil got you in this spot.

Gotcha. I started out just like that. I used one of those 100w agro bulbs from HD like 8$ took a socket and cord from an old lamp and hung in in a refrig box in the closet with aluminum foil and a fan.. Worked great till I found out they were males. #FFS

Yeah bro get in however you can. On a plus note they will stretch when you flower them. I would transplant them into a better soil when you get a chance something with organic content or try and get some basic nutes and a EC/PPM meter. those look like 1.3-1.4 EC with a supp shot of ca/mg. Remember under feed is better than over feed.

Check Craigslist too. I grab stuff off of it all the time and use some and flip some for some cash. Pretty cheap on there. I sold a few lights few months back for between 50$ for an all in one 400w and most was 70 for a 1kw hardcoreballast, hood and bulbs. 92 shipped complete is good.

edit
Misting is fine until you have a 600 or 1000 watt burning hot glass right above it getting cold water on it making you go to hospital. you want to mist right before lights go off and I mean right before . If you mist in the middle of cycle you might get light burn from the water droplets.

I'll take some more pics of plants so it will help . I know pics are hard to make a judgment call but it's a start

Bro (knock on wood) I never had a bug problem yet. If I ever did/do I will use Neem oil. I keep the spaces clean and vacuumed, spray the outer spaces with home defense 6 month spray and then go out side and spray the entrances and windows to try and be proactive against the little critters. I saw a mealy infestation once and said no thanks and went commando.

Plus summer months I would do hydro grows and winter soil/coco's

Ok cool I haven't had any bug problems . My idea was to keep cost on electric down so I was going to start seeds couple months before so they cld have a good start that an introduce them slowly to sun light an eventually grow out of big pots outside. Don't know if that's doable ?

Sure you can. I know people that do that.
 
Well my plants are coming back around the rust spots are fading away the leaves are flattening back to normal. Glad they are getting better
