New growth is thin and scrawny

*Now with pics*

I'm in week 2 of 12/12 with two female bagseeds under almost 400 watts of cfls. 12 26watt and 2 42watt mixed spectrum. they're in 2/3 generic organic soil and 1/3 perlite, fed with 2tsp tigerbloom and 1 tbsp big bloom every water. the temps are mid 60s when the lights are off and up to as high as 90 when the lights are one. i watered them tonight with just water, no ferts, to see if that made a difference. i won't have any pictures until the morning. the plants were vegged for two months and now are on the second week of flower. i started with 7 but 5 were male. thanks for the help.

You might want to switch back to veg until you can get your problems fixed. Those plants are hurting and probably will produce next to nothing. Looks like the pot is too small, temps are way too high with the lights on causing heat stress, and there is not enough fan leaves. Put back in veg in a new pot with fresh soil, add some air circulation, and when they look healthy put them back in flower.

well there are no fan leaves on the smaller one because i cut them off. the flowers on the stalk weren't getting any light. and aren't they too far along in flower to switch back?

ACK! No, don't switch them back. They're fine. The "thin" growth is normal in flowering. Your plants are now concentrating on bud production and not on veg growth.

Your plants *do* have a touch of nute burn, and the top pic is showing a wee bit of heat stress. Back off on your nutes a little, and maybe raise your light a couple of inches and you'll be fine.

Last, those pots look a bit smallish for plants that size. I'd move them to something bigger.
