I dont have that much experienc with flowering leaf issues. But you said yourself that this began when you changed the light so that tells you that either its too hot/not ventilated or circulating well or that you need more water...but it could also be some deficiency...

It's a nutrient issue, as in the plants are not getting enough. This is either down to not giving them enough nutes or pH problems.

In this case i think you just need to give your plants more nutes.

The half way point of flower is when your plants need the most nutes...

well i have all kinds of organic foods and ferts....what should i do so i dont burn it or cause a lock out for seomthing else...i ghavent payed attention to the ph but have been looking out for sighting problems threw the leaves...i have low number bloom food, bloom stimulant..this organic microorganism meal call "mother earts liquid compost" mollasses... im just trying to think what it is.....this should be an interesting discussion

and i feed with 7.0 distilled water.......dipending on the solution of the food how much will it drop the ph since the organic food drops the ph acidic

This is why you have a pH tester...

I can't work out how much of a drop in pH there will be when you add nutes. You'll need to buy a pH tester.

Also, if you want to be as accurate as i am when feeding nutes, you're going to need an ec/ppm meter.

I cannot advise on correct levels of nutes unless you have an ec meter.

Your plants are clearly lacking in the basic nutes, which are NPK. If you don't have any meters then you're going to need to use your own judgement.

well here is the thing i bought one of those 3-1 light,moister, and acidalkiline meter and i think its alittle off it says i have around a ph of 8 but i cant be because i put it in a decomposing dirt,bat guano, egg shells, coffee grind, tea leaves, ground up banana peels,mollasses..... thinking it would be acidic and it came out 8 too..... why is it saying 8 if ive been using organic foods i would of been thinking it would be more acidic...ill go buy a siol test today to get soemthing more accurate...let me know thank you

a ph of 8 is way too high, you want to shoot for like 6.5, may be causing some lockout problems... now back to your other prob.

how could it be 8 if everything i've been using is more on the acidic side? and no i didnt use them at the same time used veg for veg and bloom for bloom....but i dont really feed them too much.

just going by what you told us above; i say to do a good ph test on your soil, if you still get the same results (ph of 8 or so), then i would look into something to lower the ph.
