My superthrive bottle says drop a gallon on the front but on the back it says 1/4 tsp for container plants (I dont know why I gave them 1/2 tsp:stoned And Ive been flushing the crap outta them too they're still yellowing on the lower fan leaves but the smaller new growth between branches is green and stems are still reddish/purple. Im gonna snap a couple pics and post them to show any progress

That last pic is CLASSIC nitrogen toxicity. Look at the dull leaf surfaces and very deep rich intense green color.

The low yellowing and the splotches on it look to me like a combination of a couple things- less light penetrating the canopy (main problem with flourescent grows) plus you seem to have a calcium lockout that's getting fairly bad.

You've gotta get that soil to dry out better between waterings and keep up with your calmag. I would feed with just plain tap water and calmag for now, and give a light foliar (concentrating on lower growth) with your micronutrient at a concentration weaker than the bottle recommends. Try to let it dry out pretty well before shutting the door.

Neat cabinet btw!

Oh. Stretch. Next time, stick the pots up on something to get them closer to the lights while they are still young so that you can keep them short and fat. I see your nodes are close together though, and the apparent 'stretch' may simply be an illusion caused by the number of lower nodes that have already dropped their leaves.

Ive been waiting till the leaves start to droop to water them. If you look at the pic of inside my veg cab, the plant right in the middle needs watered its leaves are all down to its side

*UPDATE* Ok Stinky... So I went "shopping" a couple days ago and I picked up Fox Farm Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, a bottle of PH up, 2 10x10 sheets of black/white plastic for inside cabinet, new pots for veg and flowering, some more Plant Success, a bottle of Clearex, and last but not least... a PH meter! I got it off ebay $27 with tax and shipping. Hopefully now I can start fixing my problems
