one of my girls is having trouble

[Sticky1cky]

so i have a little problem that i was hoping you guys could help me out with. i can usually fix my own problems but i cant figure out why one plant would do well and the other suck when theyre the same strain in the exact same conditions.

background

i got 2 feminized Arjan Haze #1 seedlings 9 days ago in solo cups. they were about 3 to 4 nodes tall, a little streched and in need of a transplant and feeding. so the next day i put them in some 3 or 4 gallon pots with a mixture premium Eko Organic Compost and perlite. i top fed them both about a teaspoon of some Fox Farm natural and organic Happy Frog 7-4-5. since then one of the plants responded really well. its now has 10 nodes, dark green leaves, and healthy undergrowth. but the other one, which was healthier to begin with hasnt done so well. its growing at about the same rate but the leaves are a much lighter green and seem to be dying, im not really sure what to do at this point. the soil is still kind of moist so i dont want to over water it, and i just fed it like a week ago so i dont want to overdo it and burn it.

Setup

both plants have about 90 watts of 6500k cfl each. the lights are about 1-3 inches away with no heat issue whatsoever. i just checked the soil ph and its around 6.8 to 7. so no lockout

It looks too wet, maybe Ph, over fertilized...any one of them...or all. Sativas don't like too much food...nor water.

two big things that stand out...
1. transplanted into compost. Compost is too hot and will burn ur plants without adding nutes. they really need to be in a soil mix.
2. ph at 6.8-7. 6.0 especially if you're having problems. when ur ph is too high / too low, it can cause deficiencies, burn, lock out, etc...

If it were me, I get them into soil and lower the ph.
