Did u adjust your light at all? I think that was your only issue. That would be the most easiest thing to see and find out. Find out your par and dli. U will be chasing your tail til then. Growing will be super easy if u follow the correct steps. Adding a whole bunch of extra junk is not needed unless it's for beneficial purpose not figuring out issues.

Turning light up kinda defeats whole point but do u. I would take dli down to 35. The plant is telling u it can't handle the light u throwing at her. Vegging plants don't need much light at all. Drop your par and she will green up without the light green between veins. Once u have your guidelines(par/dli) then adjust according to what the plant wants. Each plant is different. Some can handle more then avg some less but always listen to them.
Are u listen to the leaves? Meaning how are they responding to the light. When lights come on they should be praying. Mid day the should be at rest by they side and rt before bed they should be a lil low ready for a gd nights sleep. If they start getting low to early like yours looked in the pic its to much light. If they are still praying at bedtime its asking for more light. Reading your plants leaf language will get u far.

Excellent observations! You know, what you say about "listening" to the leaves.. My plants are acting just like you describe and whadya know, they are happy plants. I honestly wondered why they drooped every night and were praying when lights on. So fkn obvious and I wasnt aware. Thanks dude! Its a shit poor day that I dont learn something. I love hearing from people that can tell me why as well as what.
