Your soil is so dry you can see a gap between it and the pot.

Hey what’s up 1369??
what kind of soil mix? how long has she been in that container??
me thinks she’s outgrown her little patch of soil and needs a larger home…

Is that leaf cat-chomped or is something else going on? I don't think it is excess nitrogen, the leaves are only dark in the one pic. Also how close is your lamp? If you have room to bring it closer without burning, I would try that, but really, it needs more light period if you want to get past the veg stage.
Is it an Auto or Photo? If it’s warm enough where you are I would consider moving it outdoors in the sun because your light isn’t going to cut it. CL

Miracle grow is not Miraculous, If it was me I’d dump it and repot them in FFOF or FFHF. Imo CL

i did say it was excess nutes u can tell from your other plant that plant can probably handle it a little more miracle grow will fry your plant. if your feeding water only your making the miracle grow weaker every feed then when u upot with the same miracle grow its adding nutes back
actually what are u feeding u did say 1-1-1 is that a single bottle nute if its 3 seperat bottles Nitrogen Phosphorus Potassium u can get a 3-1-1 formula just add more Nitrogen i dont no the exact amount. Or if its a single bottle increasing feed strength will increase the 1-1-1 to say 5-5-5 if u add the correct amount also what miracle grow are u using some have high fertilizer some dont

Dont no if u can get what captaint lucky suggests ffof fox farm ocean forest from your walmart if i search it says they sell it looking at that pic i would have to agree with sueet its not N toxicity try get dr earth all purpose fertilizer 5-5-5 and get dr earth flower girl for when u start flower as for the mold its supposed to be a good thing but using dirt from outside cant be good inside but people do plant directly in soil outside also see if u can get a few cheap led bulbs and a fitting for extra light if your using white cool light buy a couple of orange warm lights for spectrum
Wally sells FFOF +FFHF personally I use a 50/50 mix and it’s a hot soil so if you upcan to a 5gl. you have enuff nutes in the soil for a minute. CL
The white mold growing on top of the soil is NOT a problem, actually it’s good thing, it’s indicating that the soil has been activated by micro life- either mycellium or mycos. The mold usually disappears over time with exposure to light.
Give it more light. Marijuana plants need a lot of light to grow properly. I have all types of houseplants growing well and looking healthy under weak light. But if I try to give my Marijuana plants the same amount of light as I give those houseplants they will look like yours.
Outside the soil gets replenished with decomposing leaves and plant material. Inside, there is nothing like that happening so that is one of the reasons we use fertilizers and soil amendments. Keeping your plant growing in a small container like that means that after a couple of months it has drained the soil of enough of the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. The best fertilizers will not help enough in the long run. Nor will the fertilizers make up for the lack of light and most likely the plant will not be healthy.
I have seen many photos from growers who will give their plants more light and then get it to grow as fast as possible. That way they can often let it start to flower within 6 to 8 weeks. They might not get a lot from it but it can be done.
Buy a quality potting soil. Do not buy something because it costs less. It costs less for a reason, and usually it costs less because there is low quality ingredients to begin with.

There really isn't a good reason to repot until you get better light (imo). Everyone freaks out about miracle grow, but I used it for many years with good results in my house plants .... it's true that it isn't "ideal" for our favorite weed, but without better light, ideal is just a word and has nothing to do with your grow yet.
(the politics of Miracle Grow and it's parent company Monsanto is usually the reason people hate on them - good reasons to hate them I reckon, but the soil will not kill your plant and you already own it so...)
