Problems using Recipe #1

Leaf curling, low number of fan blades, yellowing, spotting, cupping, and many other problems you're having can be caused by heat. Heat also can do some negative things to your organic medium. I think it likely especially given how the top is being hit. Heat can be a real bitch like that.
I'm increasingly convinced that too much molasses or compost tea is either a matter of diminishing returns, or possibly even slightly harmful. I personally think they like and need some plain, chlorine-free water. Tea should be an occasional thing, and too much sugar in the soil can lead to problems between the relative levels of bacteria and fungus in the rhizosphere.

My edit addressed my other concern. Due to funky computer/network issues it took an hour or two to submit the updated post lol
Have you tried a product like "Bio-Tone" from Espoma? Lowes sells it, and it contains a whole slew of beneficials. Maybe your components are lacking in beneficials. Not all EWC will have every major beneficial organism in it. The process, as well as the attention to details, varies from company to company. If you make them yourself at home, you still may not have ever got a culture started. Some of my non-cannabis garden plants were doing a lot of similar things until I put some bio-tone on them. Total reversal! Might be worth a shot. Maybe more experienced minds can help you more.
