check the soil and make sure its not saturated.... dig down like 5 inches and make sure its not to wet. check your ph too

The bottom leaves are dying first so its probably what you thought, a nitrogen deficiency. Ok and top soil has like no nutrients in it so start using full dose nutes man!

Edit: I have heard bad bad things about miracle grow, go get some quality nutes from a hydro store they might work better. And while ur there get some quality soil as well like fox farm happy frog or light warrior or something as long as its better than just top soil.
