the results of being too aggressive with the reptisun lights, lost about 1/3 biomass on all the plants 
hey, if 2x 48" is good at 3 feet, then lowering those suckers to about 3" and add more 3 coiled reptisuns is better! wrong
woke up in the morning to find toasted leaves that eventually died. lost all the large fan leaves & was left with the small leaves which live below them
here they are, nursed back to health kinda. you can see the damage:
skunk grape
blowfish
blowfish
live & learn

all things being equal, dankouver has been the most stable of the bunch having the most trichomes, it's like it's being invaded by transparent mushrooms. dankouver has also been the slowest grower.
outside weather has been mostly sunny, dry, 60-90F degrees, wind everyday with occasional fog in the mornings. nights have been in 50s with a fan on the lights

update,...
an observation.
in the mornings after being under uvb lights all night the plants are stressed but full of trichomes. the plants don't look healthy
during the day in the sunshine the plants recuperate & begin to look healthy again
i'm going to shut off the uvb lights for a few nights, use only the coiled fluorescent lights at night, during the day sunshine & see what happens

so, i'm having work done in our greenhouse where the ladies used to be since february. before the electrician showed up i opened all the windows, turned on the fans, lit some incense & tried to air the place out to get the stinky out. the electrician comes in & does a head jerk, stares at me & i say,... "what?"..."something wrong?" 
ahhhhhhhh, stinky
ahhhhhhhh, stinky

adjustable & modified track lighting holding CFLs.
i used aviation snips to cut the original bucket tins which i then filed down to remove burrs & finally coated the edges with strip of metallic tape used on dryer vents.
the metallic walls are foiled packaging bubbles used to insulate & keep the sunlight away from motorhomes (found this in our garage).
