Light green light bleaching?

Hey so I’ve got these two Ethos 70-80 day autos growing. Lilac diesel on right is 46 days old and OG kush on left is 37 days old. I’m using an LED spider farmer sf1000 in a 2x2x5 tent. They’re in 5 gallon pots in foxfarm ocean forest soil. I water every 3 days about with distilled water ph 6.5. I top dress every other watering with roots organic dry amendments. The diesel has been weird and finicky from the start with odd number leafs and weird node spacing. Seeing half of the plant closer to the light looking lighter green to almost yellow and the other half looking a way darker green. I’m not so worried about this one I’m just letting it flower out and do it’s thing, I can tell the yield is going to to relatively smaller than usual anyway…I did move the light up though. What I’m more concerned about is I’m noticing some light green splotchiness in the Og kush plant that’s just starting to flower. Any idea what could be causing the lightening in color more near the top of the plant? Light issue? Nute deficiency? Ph imbalance problem near the roots? (can’t measure I don’t have the proper soil ph meter)…. ✌

That's awfully close, even for a 100w qb style light. You'll have a "hot spot" of intensity in the center and at the same time weak intensity towards the edges. With that said, I don't see the typical symptoms of light burn in your plants

According to Spider Farmer14" away would be the sweet spot for flowering ~ 800 umols is ideal for flowering.
Raise your light
Also it spreads the light better at that height.
Hope that helps

I’m able to move the light up a couple more inches, but you said you’re not seeing the typical symptoms of light burn, what do you think the cause could be ?
