They look over-fed, over-watered, and over-lit to me. Did you keep the same watering regimen when you switched media? Unamended peat and an amended mix will behave differently.
 
Yes, I did keep the same regimen. Only difference is I switched from Botanicare cal-mag to Cali magic. I think my ph pen could be going out and now I am over ph downing since this media probably self lowers ph aswell
 
I doubt it's a calmag issue. You might try watering less frequently. The King's Mix likely holds onto water harder than Promix does.
 
Threw a heat mat under them and they already look better!

Probably time to get out of those solos and move on up to the East Side! Hang in there!😁🐒
 
I use kings mix as well for my last 3 runs. Love it! Haven't checked ph since. And yes it does hold water very well. I also use all botanicare nutrients as well

They look awesome man! Any chance you mind sharing your feeding regime?

I start feeding my seedlings at 3 weeks. I use the exact dosage that's on the bottle. I use botanicare grow plus, Cal mag and silica blast. I use killer orcha for root growth. During veg I feed every watering and I use everything that's listed above each time. I usually water every 3 to 4 days during veg. I like to wait until it's close to complete dry back each time to avoid any mites. But of course the plants will tell you if they need more water. I usually veg for 2 months. Only thing is if you do use silica blast be sure to mix that into your water first really well. Then add cal-mag and grow. If not the silica can weaken the Cal mag. I do the exact same thing in flower except changing from grow to bloom. During flower I usually feed every 2 to 3 days. I stop using the killer orcha cause now your roots should be strong enough. I do start adding big bud and I feed that from 2 weeks after flip until I harvest. Let me know if I confused you lol
