For starters, it looks like you might have spidermites. What's your ph?

I dont think its mites and my ph is at 6.7

I see white dots on some of the leaves that in one pic that looks a little like mite damage...could be wrong. You might want to look at the underside of the leaves with a microscope.

That fertilome has an insane amount of phosphorous 9-58-8. The ratio's are way off. It's just ammonium phosphate and potassium phosphate. It has no micronutrients, calcium, magnesium, or sulfur. Your plants need more than just ammoniacal nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. You'd be better off continuing with the Grow Big or get a more balanced bloom feed that contains everything that fertilome is lacking. You're going to be starving your plant of essential nutrients if all you feed it is that fertilome. You said you switched to the fertilome a week and a half ago. Have you thought that maybe that's the problem?

Also, too much phosphorus can lock out calcium and other nutrients. Look into nutrient antagonism.

Ive considered that and was actually going to flush her with plain water then start with the foxfarm again but look into a different nute for flowering....that might not be the problem tho bc the bubblegum thats flowering is getting same water same nutes and hasn't shown signs like the bigger one .....thats what has me confused...

As others have commented you might have some bug infestation as well.

You might get half a gram off that plant. Using that as an example is a stretch. Save the other plants. They need a balanced nutrient that contains the micronutrients, calcium, and other stuff if you want to get a decent harvest. A 9-58-8 is with no micronutrients is not what you want. Get some GH Maxi Bloom and call it a day. 1/2 - 3/4 tsp per gallon. Start with 1/2.

Layed off the nutes seems to be working
