Having issues with 2 out of 3 strains

Hey guys - I'm just starting my first grow and about 3 days in. I have 10 plants in all 3 strains. 7 of what a buddy of mine calls Oak Blue, 2 of a strain called White Berry, 1 of "The White" (?). My setup is an 8x4x8 tent, with 2 600 watt HPS, a 6" Inline fan, a 12" oscillating fan, using FFOF mixed with Happy Frog, and using Liquid sea kelp to mist the plants once or twice a day (not sure if necessary, just heard that the kelp helps with plant stress after being transplanted). My temps have been between 65 and 71 F. and RH is at about 45 - 50%.

Anyways, to get to my point, my "Oak Blue" strain is doing great, no issues at all that I can tell at this point. However the other 2 strains, "The White" and the "White Berry" are not doing too hot. 1 plant may in fact be dead, but it still has a decent amount of green so I'm not losing hope at this point. I have attached some pics ( Albeit not great ones, but still) If anyone has an opinion or any ideas as to what could be going wrong, please feel free to share. Like I said, this is my first grow and Im starting off slow so that I don't kill a bunch of clones off. I'm an open book so please help, if you can!

Thanks to all and Happy New Years!

your plants are burning, pull the light back away, also, do not spray the plants with anything you risk burning them with a magnifying glass effect... with your 600w lights, keep them around 3ft away untill they start really growing...

Oh ya, their fried like crispy bacon. Can you dial down your ballast or only use one light? Or better yet get some t5s. Damn dude, you nuked em. Hope they recover.

I pulled the light back up to about 3 foot. I'm thinking that the pics though don't really do it justice. The other 7 plants are looking pretty strong, it's just these 3. But I'll definitely heed the advice. Any other recommendations to try to save them, or just let nature run it's course and see what happens?

Thanks cani and ninja... Checked them just before the light cycle shut down and 2 of the 3 are already doing a complete turn around. There is still hope for the other plant as it is looking much better as well. Thanks so much. Gave you both plus rep, I think. Haha... I'll make sure I did it right. Ninja - I will be getting t5 lights. I kinda went in the reverse order and its biting me in the ass now. Clearly.

if that camera is a phone camera, look for the "white ballance" feature, and change light to "incandesant", your pics will look better..
