Im in my 7th week growing easyryder la woman and rocklock and my plants are yellowing from the bottom up and dying off slowly. plus the la woman is getting brown spots, could that be from being the closest to the light? im using 2 hps 150watt lamps and using fox farm fertilizers. any one have any ideas??

7th week still in veg & at this time of year (northern Hemisphere) it is possibly leaf spot fungus. Nasty stuff, hope for your sake it isn't.

You dont have to worry about your pH in soil unless it's below 6.5.

you want a ph of about 6ish actually......your probally overwatering or ph or overfert, describe your setup and the progress of the grow so far and the essentials like how often you water and that sort of stuff. w/o a pic its hard to tell but i dont think its leaf fungus imo. w/o this info we cant help you at all, with it and no pic we might be able to but the pic will really help us help you. the fox farm is used by lots of people, i dont think it in itself is the proble, it could be overfeeding if it is a problem with the nutes, but any other brand would do the same if you overfed.
 
I dont think its any kind of fungus.. maybe im overfertilizing, my plants are kind of small. Im growing in a closet i have 6 plants, 3 under a hps 150w and 3 under another 150w hps. Ive been keepin the lights on 20 hrs and dark 4 hours. 4 of them are autoflowering and im not sure when I need to switch the light cycle for the other 2. I put the full dose of grow big and big bloom to all of them and tiger bloom to the autoflowering ones that started budding already. i mix it in distilled water and water them when theyre about 5/6cm dry from the top. I spray the leaves once in a while with water and big bloom once in a while too. i have a humidifier and keep it about 40-60% and air conditioner to keep it around 73-75*. i keep fans on them 24hrs. how do i post pics??

wrong, pH below 6.5 in soil will wreck both micro flora & compost.

Why do you not think it could be fungal problem? LSF spores are airborne & closet grow's provide an excellent environment for them to thrive in. My veg cabinet can testify to this.

You should read up on organic growing, pH adjusting your water when there is no need, is considered as detrimental by the best organic grower's.
