Help with possible nute burn

Evening all.
I'm growing a few plants in Australia outdoor in summer. They've been vegging for two months at this stage.
I recently potted them up and used a soil mix I fear now was a little too hot - something like 25% potting mix, 25% mushroom compost, 25% sheep manure (I think this might be the issue) and the rest perlite and vermiculite.
I also noticed some spider mites so gave them a spray with water and dish soap mixed together three days in a row just this last week.
Here's what they look like.
Green Poison
White Widow
Is that nute burn? Any ideas or suggestions guys? Pretty bummed I might have screwed my grow but we have about 6 weeks before flowering period starts (light hours drop) so maybe I can save it ...
I'm all ears, thanks in advance people.

Ill give it a shot, its been a while since I tackled such a problem.
I would uproot them and be gentle, place them in some neutral soil, lower my lighting power/ baby them under soft fluorescents, maybe flush the soil with water and leach the hotness out..
However if I didnt know the sex, Id toss them.. no point in wasting energy on some boys. .

Definitely looks like the classic burned tip / claw shape starting... Younger plants are generally more sensitive too

Thanks guys - I flushed the crap out of the soil and they have sparked back with new growth that is looking pretty healthy.
The lesson is don't OD on manure in your mix, and maybe do one good flush of your mix before you plant in it. Always learning ...
