The leaves on the bottom are yellowing I'm pretty sure its due to the lack of light I have a very small grow area and really only the top of the plants are getting light I'm using 7 CFLs in 2x 2 ara just need a second opinion

I don't think there's much to worry about. Cpl yellow leaves OK. Don't go over-board on the nutes because that can cause issues. Steady as she goes.

How far into flower are they? Looks like they got a good amount of foliage. It might just be the normal process of the plant. I have one thats allways been sickly, but the buds are fatter than her healthier sister.
 
Hey bud, I'd start with checking the PH of the water you are giving your plants. If it's still early on, the PH could be locking out nutrients to the plant (Nitrogen).
 
Primary and secondary nutrient deficiencies start at the bottom and move up the plant. My guess is either Magnesium or Nitrogen deficiency. With the brown/dead spots on the leaves im leaning towards Magnesium. Add epsom salts to your veg food to give the plant mag and it should start to get better in 3-4 days.
What are the NPK ratios of the nutes you are using and how much of each one are you giving?
