Going in the right direction.... help me please

So I have a few problem children I need help with, there are a few different strains, I think I should have just tried 1-3 strains instead of 8-9!!!! I am having great success with some strains (2 of 3 Perris Kush, WW, 1 of my AK's, Sliver Kush are all doing good).

Ok, so I'm not sure how to do this to make it easy for replies, I have 7 plants that need looking at, I want to post all of them so that if it is something related (kinda what I am expecting) you can let me know or if it is separate issues maybe due to different strains?

Basic info:

4 in Veg. (light = 18/6 w250w compact floro) rest in flower (light = 12/12 400w HPS), FF ocean soil, FF products (PH'd 6.5) used per chart 1-2x per week (depends on how thirsty they get I use the finger method test when top soil is dry) and use PH'd plain water (PH'd 6.5) for any other time they need water. Had Ph problems about a month ago and the one's that have done good, didn't seem to have PH issues or be affected by my mistakes, however some of the ones that had PH issues from the start seem to consistently need more flushing and correcting however over the last 2-3 weeks they are much easier to correct and stabilize but still once in a while they like to drop down in the low 5's much more often than the others.

I have just started putting them outside for some direct sunlight a few hours a day.

Here is the first one, I will post each plant in it's own post to try to make it easier for individual diagnosis, I hope? If not I am sorry for the long post..

I don't know how to get the photos in the actual post instead of a link or attachment, this one is Perris Kush it seems to be only a few leaves that are affected, this one is in flower.

This one has some white spots and some yellowing.

These guys have had problems with PH since I first got them, started out as my fault for not PH'ing properly, but even after I corrected it always wants to go low and the first problems I had with these were some bright yellow stripes across the leaves then they start spreading. It seemed to go away and stabilized then I had mites eat the shit out of 'em. These are in some serious need of some help, they have been in flower for 2 weeks and I am starting to have some doubts as to if they will do OK.... One looks slightly better than the other but not by much.

Bag seed has done pretty good but there is a bit of yellow starting...(tall one)

Bubba was doing pretty good but has started developing some issues....(small one)

These are the last of the pics I am posting. Thanks for taking a look.

I have been fighting off spider mites and have used 'don't bug me' several times I think I am starting to get it under control, the white spots are a bit large compared to the other small white spots that I know are mite spots. I have thought maybe it was some foliage spray that might have burned the leave, but I don't think that is what it was.

Seems two of my plants above got worse in just a few hours, I did feed them today, should I flush them right away? They both had acceptable PH low 6's, the bubba was just transplanted the other day (I cut out the bottom of the pot it was in and filled another 1 gallon pot and put the old pot on top).
