(stacked rubbermaids).. if i started them from seed with the conditions like this in my box which is vegged/flowered with 2 40w 5000K and 1 40W 2700K CFLS shouldnt they be use to there enviroment and not getting stressed out after all there autos sooo what could be other reasons?

Bro your using 3 cfls and only 1 of them is 2700k... I'd Grow my autos only with 2700k-3400k cfls. And how about them rubbermaids? Are they white or clear? Or are they a dark colored? Black and other dark colors attract light. so less light for plants. Hows the Temp?

Excellent advice. Also look for salt build up or lock out with the nutes you use.

Yeah good advice new way of thinking about it. And the rubbermaids are lined with mylar and I have a 5.25inch Entree Air fan on top to cool the box down. Then I added a couple small holes for added measure, temps arent a problem with this setup suprisingly , and about the lights im going to be adding a 20W 2700k when they start to flower... think ill be okay. I just wish i knew how to wire up computer fans instead of this ghetto setup i feel like id shock myself haha.

I WILL HAVE PICS UP BY TONITE HOPEFULLY THX

It vegs fine but im more worried about them flower wise... this is my first grow so ill have to wait it out. 120W for vegging then ill add 17-20w 2700k to even out the spectrum a little when flowering so lets say 140W flowering, my theory is yield will be a little airy but still a decent, dank harvest! DO YOU GUYS THINK THIS IS OKAY?
