he started all ten seedlings in miracal-grow(he knows better now) but they all are at 5 weeks and in full flower mode under 24/7. white hairs everywhere at this point. lower leaves were getting a little yellow and were treating w/ a feeding and everything seems to be heading in the right direction, three other plants in w/ the lowryders in veg stage, 1 white widow, 1 ak-47, and one mr nice guy all getting along real well also, he's looking to veg these plants the whole life of the lowrydes before budding them in 12/12, should be some big plants. any advise for my buddy to help from tis point on......

BIGGEST PROBLEM IS YOUR LIGHT MH is for VEG the Spectrum doesnt suit for flowering.
LR's have no veg stage so the MH is better than nothing but if going to invest in good seeds such as the ones you stated why not put some cash up for a HPS light for flowering? It will double your yield without a doubt.
