After that long of not giving nutes it's probably got many defficiencies. Looks like nitrogen to be the most obvious.

They look pretty fried to me. Either overfert (ferts already in soil but foxfarm is usually pretty good) burned them with the molassas (I honestly can't say but it certainly is a possiblity) or abnormal ph.....or any combination of the three above.

Stop the molasses for good....in fact...stop everything. Flush heavily with ph correct water until the water coming out the bottom is the same ph as the water you are putting in the top. After flushing ALL the excess crud out feed them a WEAK ph correct nute solution.

Ps...correct ph for soil should be 6.2-6.8....ph of 7 may be part of your problem.....but you need to know what the ph of your soil runoff is to really check for correct ph.

Good luck there.....hope they make it.

they're burned somehow for sure. Personally I think its' the molassas. I used some molassas in my hydro setup once (didn't use the correct way for hydro) and burned some roots off my plants fairly bad even though I caught the problem right away. Took me a week to get the poor plants back to normal.

Good luck

Ps...Not saying don't use molassas generally....just that it can cause problems if not used correctly (as I discovered....)

Molasses should never be used in a hydro grow. Only in soil grows..

Actually i know several people who use it in hydro apps. . I just happen to be someone who doesn't usually "use things" well so I stick to the Sweet.

with FoxFarms you usually dont have to feed for 4 weeks, after planting/transplanting that is.

Use light guano adds for nutes.( 2-0-0;0-4-0; many different ones depends on what your plant needs, in your case. nitrogen )

i've been using em and my plants look good

Is there anyway that these plants need more light? Could lack of light make leaves on the big one look like this?? And with the smaller ones that are getting very light green from dark green,,, could that be from light, as they spent their first 3 weeks in another room with cfls, and now they are in a room with 400w hps???? This has happened to a few of the smaller ones, they dont look too unhealthy, just light green...
