The onlt thing I'm feeing her right now is FF grow big, and a little super thrive, feeding every other watering. and yes the problem is more towards the center of the plant

thats a root problem.
your roots are either being nibbled on by something or the pot is not draining properly.
i cant see anything but the top of your pot, so unless that pot is 4 feet deep, you need to put that plant in something bigger, something in the 5-8 gallon range to last through the remaining 4+ months of it's life cycle.
when you re-pot it, examine the rootball especially near the center of the root mass, feel for slimey goop, and watch for critters.

It's in a 5 gallon pot nowm how about putting it in a 10 gallon pot, I just don't want it to get much bigger while vegging, don't want it peeking over the fence if you know what I mean.

I think Dr. Kynes hit the nail on the head, we've been having quite a bit of rain lately, and the 5 gal. pot I have this plant in is pretty heavy, I'm having a drainage problem and the roots aren't getting enough oxygen. going to transplant into a bigger pot (10 gal.) in the morning.

Re pot it and tie down the nodes you will wind up with a greater yield that way.
I got giant paper clips, the black metal ones, put them all around the rim of the pot and tied it down that way.

termites in your roots or bugs in your roots?
termites generally preferr drier areas. you might have root aphids. if the critters are small quick white pips then you got root aphids if the look like fat drunken white ants and grubs then its termites. pray it's termites
to keep your plant under the fenceline, dig a big ass hole ad put the pot in it. or use a half barrel. 25 gallon size and about the same height as a 5 gallon. just be sure to make drain holes.
