Seems to be some heat issues and maybe a bit of overwatering but they look pretty good. No need to rehash the light issue.

I'll take some good pics after lights out with regular lights on ... so, should I chop the weak ones or do you want to see pics first?

I grow 2 to a container and when they start growing I train them in opposite ways so there is no overcrowding. I do this because 1. I have limited room and 2. The amount of soil in a bucket is more then is needed for the length of the veg cycle. What I do is use those hooks that people use to hang plants from the ceiling off of a rope. I turn the hook upside down and secure it in the dirt. Next take a seedling and wrap it to the inside of the hook and it will naturally start growing apart since the 2 hooks are facing opposite ways. This way there is no competition for space or light. The yields are a bit lower on each plant but the overall is more since there are more plants growing this way.

Actually, after a few people suggested, I raised some of the shorter plants closer to the light, so the ones in the middle are 12 inches from the lamp. I increased my fan speeds and pointed the fans upwards so they are cooling the area, hence I can keep them a bit closer to the light.
Had some crazy growth over the last few days ... tallest is 41 inches now

I had no choice but to over water because I had to feed them ... I'm planning on letting them dry out a good bit before I water again, as they have now all had a good dose of nutrients, this is an on the job training kinda work, I'm just taking it one day/problem at a time.

I agree, I will cut them at the bottom of the stem, as I had to do when I had a male planted with a female.
Well, I already have 6 in 20 gallon containers so I'm expecting those to be quite large.

Do you put hydrogen peroxide in the water to give the roots more oxygen

12 inches, but I have a fan cooling them at all times, and it passes the forearm test.

I took some pics of some plants individually, but will have to upload them when I get my laptop back after it being hijacked by my 7 year old ...
