WHAT DID i DO TO MY PLANTS!!

OK. I just got back into growing my own stock. Its been about 10 yrs so im rusty and still a newbie. OK HERES THE STORY....

I did pretty well germn my seeds got em sproutin..

Now there about 6inches and I have an ass of plants growin (unexpected) and i decided to find some plant food. I went out found some organic mixture from kmart ( I know) and I diluted it ( one cap to whatever) and BOOM! white shit! Then nut burn! all in one night. I flushed one and the rest seem to be okay after wiping off the leaves (with milk and baking soda --some internet remedy), I thought it was some sort of fungus but I think It was ph issue. Shit i dont know.

Now last thing, I have some great soil and I think i may not need to add nuts like that since these jokers were growin pretty good without it. Its some straight compost mixture of cow crap and leaves but man I drop a seed then BOOM.

So any clues , as to whats goin on? All my knowledge is thru the net so I need help. I want to keep these guys goin there NEEDED BAD.
:?:

oh the numbers are like 8-4-4 all organic. I hear thats whats up, plus chemicals are not good right?

Pics would help.. Advice for now.. Stay away from any nutes until things calm down. **Get a pH tester** And I'd start with a more basic nute all level numbers or maybe a little higher in the middle.. then start slooooowwwww. Like 1/10 of what it suggests. You're using distilled water, right?-Or letting tap water sit for at least 36hrs or so before using!?

HELP A NOOB PLEASE/Have books, but need some answers please

Want a big fat cola bud hope I get a female out of these to not pollinate

This is my first plant that I have grown. I have before and after pics, healthy in the first I believe then appears to be dyeing in the second picture. The soil is 3/4 top soil and about 1/4 moo-nure. I also have been using miracle grow when I watered, now I only use distilled water to try to get it back on track. I also have 12 more seeds in soil in grow cells germinating, two of the 12 just show the white root on the soil, should I keep these in the dark untill the seedling stage starts or leave them under grow lux florescent to get them to the veg. stage. I plan to buy a HPS/MH setup for veg./flowering phase. Im a noob so any comments or ideas to save this plant would be appreciated. please view my pics and give me some grow ideas...

Is it bad to move potted plants from inside to outside??? should I let my new babies veg. outside ever???CIMG8536.jpgCIMG8541.jpgCIMG8556.jpgCIMG8555.jpgCIMG8552.jpg

Stop feeding it fertilizer to your plant u have got nute burn stands for nutrient burn i would advise to flush it out if its still alive, do not add any fertilizer to ur plants until they are at least 1 month n sum weeks before adding any nute. Does ur plastic pot have any holes at the bottom bc u need them to drain to water, weed does not like bathing in water it could cause root rot. It is not bad if u move ur plants from inside to outside at least 8 to 12 hrs of sunlight and 12 hrs of Dark. Just make sure the room its in is well ventilated room with temp of 75 to 79. I would let ur babies got sum sun just dont over water them and dont spray water on leafs when they are outside the water magnifies the suns rays and burns ur leaves. Ask me anything else.

rule #1 of veg. miracle grow = death. do not water for a bit, you may be drowning them. Make sure you let water sit in sun for awhile (1-2 days) before giving them to plants. halides in tap will kill young roots. I'm not perfect, but I would go 18 hours on (HPS) and 6 off to get veg stage rolling for awhile. read some other people's failures on here. it helped me getting started
