What are you temps like at the top of the plants?
Light might be to close and drying them out
quicker then they can replenish themselves.

dont use no bloom. you dont need it yet!
check the lables on ya nutes and start 1/4 strenth
and see how you get on.
also maybe back the light off a little and see if that helps.
although it doesnt burn your hand your plants are under it
for long periods of time. Just like if we sit in the sun long enough
we start to burn!
if ya water temp is 71f its probably going to be a good few degrees higher
at the top of ya plants.
get yourself a digital thermometer and then you can adjust your light height
to get optimum temps at the top of your plants.
or invest in a heat shield or cool tube. heat shield being the cheaper option
but they tend to diffuse the light slightly and reflect the heat away from the
plants. There ok but not great!
cool tube is the slighty more exspensive option and requires some setting up with
ventilation and stuff but works very well.
