leaves curling up, lower leaves yellow (with pictures)

Hello everybody, I'm growing 5 plants indoors under 600W lamp (I believe it's a HPS lamp, but I'm not sure since I don't know the english translation).
Some of the leaves have been curling up at the edges, and one of the plants has some yellow discoloration on one of the lowest level leaves (those two that the plant first has and are different from the others), which you can see in one of the pictures, though the yellow from the lamp drowns it out a little.

Google searches suggest this is either heat exhaustion, nutrient OD or water OD. We water the plants every 4 days with treated water, and have temporarily stopped adding nutrients to it. Since we've had a very warm summer and the lamp itself is also very hot, I suspect heat exhaustion to be the cause.

This is my first time growing pot, so I figured the best thing to do was to get advice from experienced people like yourselves. Any advice/insights would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I should probably also mention that the room is not strongly ventilated.

its the nutrients u gave b4 way too early and it'd be underwatered not overwatered the curling up means the plant is trying to keep any moisture it possibly can so it makes a cup outta the leaves to try to collected water.

looks too hot
and the bootom leaves u speak of r supposedd to die off....and is suggested not to give nutes until they die off
 
Thanks for the clarification guys, will the fact that I gave nutrients too early have any serious impact? Also, when can I start giving nutrients again?
I will increase ventilation and hang the lamp a little higher to decrease temperature, I'll let you know how it goes.

u may see signs of over fertilization...but nothing too serious depending on how much u gave them
