Second grow, comments please

Growroom- 15x20 building. Lighting- 2 400w MH on an 18/6 regimen.
Nutes- Primal Grow and Primal Bloom organics
Started 72 seeds 17 days ago from a friends grow. Looks so far like a mix of indica and sativa plants. 60 germinated and only 32were transplanted into 12oz styrofoam cups in an organic soil mix. I added bat guano 10-3-1 and wormcastings. I used BioNova Nova Roots 0-0-1 when potting per directions and I water with SuperThrive and Vitazyme for hormones, vitamins and such. the temps stay between 70 and 80 and the humidity between 50-60 percent. I have a ceiling fan and box fans for circulation. I am only using a 2'x4' space in the building, 4'x4' during flowering over 8 plants. I plan to wall up a 8'x15' section and line with visqueen plastic but at the moment I am suffering quite a bit of light loss into an open area.

My pH is pretty acidic somewhere around 6 so I am adding lime tomorrow to try and fix it. Aside from the droopy leaves and tips curling they look pretty good. N-P-K test was good, so nutes are no problem. My water is quite acidic as well, even the distilled water I buy so I guess I will have to get the chems. to adjust ph unless someone can tell me a safe home remedy, maybe hydrated lime since it is water soluble...I dunno. Insects are no problem at all, see one every 3-5 days and take care of it, I have 3 ladybugs that have ventured in and patrol the area, but they generally are inactive. I have noticed some small white spots on the leaf tops, but have not identified the culprit, possibly eaten. I plan to veg under the MH until plants are around
18" then flower under the same lights with fluro supplements. I will start taking clones as soon as I have a few good branches. I will need some help in that area, as I have not been the greatest so far. And my last crop killed over from a freeze that I wasn't prepared for so I have that taken care of. Using the guano and castings, when should I fertilize or side dress again, how do I tell without doing multiple soil tests? I am new to organics, but do pretty well with liquid chemical ferts (Algoflash 6-6-6). Off to bed, thanks for any input.

Well... what can i say? lol sounds good, have you got the space to flower too? sounds like youve got most of it covered... as for the tiny white spots, are they really tiny? or just small, cuz if they are tiny little specs, its probably spidermites, im sure the ladybugs will sort them.. good luck..
