HELP!!! Does this look like nute burn? or a calcium deficiency??

We haven't fed any nutes at all, however we did originally plant in miracle grow.(BLEURGHHHHH!) Don't really know why it would get nute burn now though as aposed to when they were real babies? They have been out the ground 25 days now, just been put into a lovely new home and 3 gallon pots with biobizz all mix for the majority and biobizz light mix soil for a couple.
These marks on the leaves are the worst of the lot, it is quite minimal at the minute and only on a few of the leaves on 2 out of the 5 plants. We just want to catch this before things get out of hand!
We transplanted 4 this morning and 1 last night, the 1 we transplanted last night (into biobizz all mix) didn't appear to have any marks on at all before the transplant so those have appeared over night/today. They only had 500ml of water each with the transplant so I don't see how it could logically be nute burn?
It's only on a couple of the leaves at the bottom of the plants so we really want to find out what it is before anything else happens.
Any help is greatlyyyyy appreciated!

Thanks guys

you have lovely hands....well id try and give you some assiatance but its kinda hard with the light in the background ever thing is green ...lol....you may wanna post soome pick during lights on time, that may help you get more responces....id personally never reccomend using MG nutrients ,...the have time release chemical nutrients that will hurt your plants....check and see if your leaves are getting a chrunchy crispy feel....thats usually a sign of a calcium deffenciey ...if thats the case then id give it a 1/4 th of a dose of cal mag or whatever your using.....but if you rent sure id be safe and post new pic....because it kinda looks like the beggings if nute bure wich would coiencide with the MG ....so be safe and pos new picks
 
I don't see any sign of nute burn unless you are talking about splashing some nutes on the leaves when feeding. That is a possibility, especially on the lower leaves. A few pictures in the natural light would really help diagnosing.
 
as requested

Hopefully these pictures will give a better idea.
Haven't fed any nutes at all yet, I dont understand why the miracle grow nutes would suddenly start harming them now? They have been fine for 3 weeks with no signs of any burn...

Hey bud, the wilting droopy leaves look like either over watering or a ph issue, the rusty spots look like a cal/mg def, which could be caused by the ph being off, those are quick guesses tho, something to atleast look into
 
Honestly that plant looks perfectly fine with the exception of what skrewg said, the drooping leaves may be a sign of overwatering. If you are using that mg moisture control that could be what is causing that. Holding too much water in the roots. There may be a very slight sign of nute burn, I can see just a very small amount on the tips that looks yellow but that isn't bad at all. The one spot in picture 7 may be cal issues or it may have been where some water got splashed on it during feeding time. If you see that spread I would be ready to put some cal/mag on it but for right now I would let her go. Have you been checking the ph at all? I would keep an eye on that. Otherwise I wouldn't worry too much, the plant looks real healthy from what I can see.
 
Awesome cheers guys. Weve been keeping the ph of the water at 6.5 the whole time. Last time the bf checked the soil the ph was 7.2, so do you think we should lower the ph of the water so we can get the soil to 6.5 aswell? They have been given 500ml of water for the majority of their lives and then bumped up to 750ml for a couple of waterings. We gave them 1ltr once and the next day thats when one of them showed the rusty signs on the leaves. So were sticking to 750ml atm.
The leaves start to droop drastically an hour or 2 before the lights shut off, come morning though they are perky as f**k and stood to attention. We figured they are just winding down for the night :)
