Inspectadeck looking nice bro , you got a fan on those plants yet? Make sure you do cuz even those lil cfl's can build up a lot of heat givin a few hours in a small space.
What kinda soil mix are you using? How often are you watering? And what is the closet temp? PH? Do u let your tap water sit out over night before you water (to rid the water of clorine)?. You havent started fertilizing yet have you? Im trying to diagnose what that secong plants problem is but its kinda hard to without more info. My guess is its a lil overwatered or maybe it is a little too hot. Maybe that foil/mylar is reflecting the heat from the lamp and making the leaves a little to warm. It doesent look like its nute burned the leaves,they show no signs of over-fertilization so I dont think you have fertilized yet (which is good). Make sure you get a fan in there asap.

Well you shouldnt fertilize until they have 5 or 6 nodes, use it at half strength in a 2-liter soda bottle put 7-10 drops. fertilize every 2 feedings , then the third use straight water.
As they get bigger you can increase the fertilizer to full strength. Water when the soil feels mostly dry and/or container feels light. You can put your finger down in the soil to test the dryness. The urine is good for N , just dont overdo it with it. And you really should have waited till the plants were on the 4 or 6 node (nodes are the sets of leaves) to fertilize.
For some decent cheap soil go to walmart and get there "expert gardener perfect mix" like $2.50 a bag, Its got lime& pertlite already added and its got a
nice texture.
And there "expert garderner all purpose plant food (24-8-16)" is like $3.50 for a 1.5lb box of the water soluble powder,thats the vegg growth fertilizer I use.

the fourth picture above this post is basicly birds eye view of the closet, in the center of the four plants there are four cfl light bulbs, in the corner of the room is a high pressure sodium buld that is aimed towards the plannts, plant number "one" from eariler posts (the plant that was so far behind) was tansplanted into an approx. 3 gal pot,and it is almost outgrowing the rest of them. if u take a look at the progress it is the third posted in the big orange pot.

yeah root, i found out the hard way lolol, it dosent look like its gonna recover, we still have three other plants to try and get buds off of, i think were are really getting close to switching the timers for flowering, 2 of the three plants are now transplanted into bigger pots, im hoping to get the last one done ASAP, i think we are going to start flowinering by the time it is in another pot, i noticed while transplanting how much root actually grows in the pot, and the plants that were transplanted are starting to grow wider and more bushy.
