so im gonna try to post as much info as possible so there are no questions but if i miss anything be sure to ask and ill try to get back to you as soon as possible.
So i have a 3x5x7 grow tent with one 2x4 ft 600 wtt florescent grow light hung above the plants at 2 ft, an oscillating fan, and a 4 inch inline fan sucking air out of the tent. the temp stays in the 70-80 range and the humidity is at 40-50%. im growing 7 plants of glazed cherries a hybrid from the PNW. Im growing in 5 gallon buckets and the growing medium is coco. I water 2 1/2 cups of water every other day and switch between nutrient water and regular water. all of my water is ph balanced at 5.9 and i use house and garden nutrients at the following amounts per gallon 3ml of coco A&B 2 ml of multi zen and .3 ml of root excelarator nitro boost algen extract and amino treatment. the plants are 2 week old clones that have been in my tent for 15 days now and were originally in a peat mixture. the started looking a little light green and droopy and then they started getting small spots emanating from the veins of the plant and some necrosis on the plant leaf itself. at first only one plant showed any signs but almost all of them with the exception of two have the problem. the two unaffected are growing very well although they are all grown using the same method so im not sure why some are doing well and others aren't. i have a few pictures that i hope will help in diagnosing the problem. thanks in advance

I second that... your feeding bio-stimulants like Amino Acid and Kelp but no food to go with the stimulation. Like taking ginseng and red bull before a long hike but not eating any actual food... Probably not going to work out.

By food I mean Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, Calcium etc..... Bio-Stimulants are things like hormones, organic acids(Humic), Sugars etc. In other words they are the things that indirectly contribute to plant growth.

You dont want to stimulate plant growth without giving the plant the means to do so, ie food!
