ThcSrb little update and a question asked under the d15 image.
D15: Lower leaves are showing orange/brown spots, higher leaves are just showing hints of these spots at the very end. These spots started slowly showing when it had a different 600w light, the obvious problem back then was too much heat, this started a little "save operation" by having no light and seeing that the plants have the right amount of water, nutrients, humidity and lower heat. This made the plants look a bit healthier but now
it looks like the spots have spread and also affected the leaves above... Are my plants healthy? What could be the issue?

With the size of the plant and the size of your pots it might actually be a root-lock which means the pot is too small for the plant and the roots have nowhere to grow. Start with repotting your plants in a bigger pot (I'd pot it in a 11 liter right away) and when doing that check if the roots are tangled within themselves, if they are then gently untangle the roots before potting the plant!
After you repot them give them a nice nutrient rich (N-P focused/Veg) watering with at least 20-30% of it as runoff, and don't forget to make sure the pH is balanced.
Also try to use a medium with good drainage in the new pot to prevent any water damage.
Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)
ThcSrb Should I remove the dried leaf in the bottom? I was thinking that it might redirect unnecessary energy to the plant since the leaf might be too far gone to save. I was thinking of starting topping next week as well, when the fifth node start to show more. But for now, these leaves at the bottom starts to dry up on all the plants. One more than the other... Should I cut these leaves off?

If the problem was fixed, the blotching and yellowing stopped spreading, and the plant started to grow again then you could remove any dead (little to no green left on it) foliage!
Since the chlorophyll is gone (which is responsible for the green color and for photosynthesis) there's no real reason to keep that leaf.
It's also best to remove those leaves to prevent any pest/fungi damage (like powdery mildew or fungus gnats).
*About topping the same goes for it, if there's no more stress/problems with the plant growth then you can top her, if not I'd suggest avoid any stress to the plant until it is solved.
Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)
ThcSrb Looking good and healthy, topped them at the start of this week :)

ThcSrb Grazy growth this week! After topping, the plants kept growing good.
Tried to separate the big fan leaves from the other smaller ones, this way the smaller ones could get some light. Couple days after the smaller branch overtook the fan leaves in height and grew above them! so it worked but I wanted to try to defoliate on one plant and removed some big fan leaves, you could see this on one pic. I'm slightly worried about this one since it's a bit smaller than the rest, but so far it looks good.
Now at the start of week 6, I started some LST, I know... it's a bit late but better late than never!

ThcSrb this week has been good, did some defoliation too. :)
ThcSrb Looks good for this week. Many beautiful buds are starting to form but I think that one plant is a little bit ahead of the others since it has formed a more purple color. The plants has stopped growing taller for some time now and started to focus on the buds.
Starting this week, I was thinking of using Advanced nutritions Overdrive for two weeks then flushing for one week. So, three more weeks of flower then harvest. I'm skeptical if that's enough. Would it work with three more weeks of flower or should I wait more? First time growing
I just noticed you're using PH perfect Grow. You know you have to use Reverse Osmosis water with PH Perfect? Your also feeding them bloom nutes. They don't need them until she starts flowering. Hope that helped
