Only Five Blade Leaves?

Could be a strain specific trait.
Or you could throw more light at them and see what happens.
And I've had 11 leaflets as well as 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9
I Never concern myself with leaflet count. Just the health of the plant.

I say you have no problem at all. Just keep doing what you're doing!
Keep it up!

Yep, both things are perfectly normal, yet strain dependent, as Antics mentioned. I only grow 2 strains, and one had up to 9 blades, and the other had a max of 5, under the same conditions.
As for the pistols, they are mainly an indicator of your plants sexual maturity. Since you bought clones, they are as old as the mother they came from, so they are mature. They usually pop up by your new growth, so you have nothing to worry about!

They're looking healthy! You're smart for spacing your changes out a few days. You'll learn a lot your first grow, and if you can keep one mistake from affecting all your plants, you'll be better off. Keep up the good work!

Well I hate to see this go unanswered... I'm not completely sure from the pictures, but it looks like you may have some pests. I don't know if they're mites or thrips (or even something else), but I'd do a little research. All those little white spots on the fan leaves aren't good.
As for the yellowing: it's kind of in an odd pattern, which makes me think it is either due to the pests or a deficiency. Your pH sounds fine for soil. They still need some nitrogen for the first 2-3 weeks, so that may be your issue. Did you cut the grow big nutrient out completely, and are you following a feeding schedule of some sort?

Pick them off by hand and drop them into a cup with a little iso at the bottom to kill them. Then spray with an organic pesticide like: Stir together 1 quart of water, 1 tsp of liquid dish soap and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Spray mixture onto plants. Go back in 24 hours and inspect the plant for bugs. If there are any on the plant, either repeat with the same mixture or try:
insecticidal soap,
crush garlic and mix with water and spray on the plant,
Mix 1 cup of vegetable or white mineral oil with 2 cups of water and 2 teaspoons of bleach-free dish soap and spray on the plant
Pyrthrin spray
inspect and spray every 24 hours until they you don't see one for two or three days. Keep inspecting everyday for a week. If you see any returning, use the spray again.
Aphid control is nothing to procrastinate. They seem to show up in heards overnight and can suck the life out of a plant in a matter of days if their colony gets large enough.
