Pull off the effected leaves and put them in a plastic bags. Get them the hell out of your grow. Clean room with bleach. Molds and fungus spreads like crazy. Then spray you plants top and bottom with neem. Not only does it kill bugs but it is a fungicidal spray too. How is your ventilation in the grow area? Get a fan to get the air moving. Don't beat your plants up but its good if the leaves move some with the fan. Try this and keep me posted. Sorry I didn't get this sooner. I have been off line a few days.

Otherwise, the only thing you can do is scrap them and start over. I would try the other first. It will take a few days before you notice a change. Repeat the process if you see more mold. Fungus and mold spread with tiny spores they release in the air. That is why it is important to clean everything and get the air moving in your grow. Only use the neem once a week. The neem will kill the spores on the plant and prevent it from spreading. Know that your leaves may curl but don't worry about that. After you get the ladies straightened out, only use the neem once every two weeks. Be sure to follow the mixing directions for the neem. Too much spraying of anything on the leaves can cause more problems.

Pictures suggest multiple problems. #7 has a couple spots that look like possible pest issues. #8 looks a lot like a plant that is starving and feeding on itself. After vegging 2 months the FF soil could be depleted of nutes. Playing with bloom foods can cause similar problems causing lower leaves to drop. When there is a question of nutes with no clear solution it is usually best to feed a balanced (20-20-20) organic plant food at 1/4 to 1/2 strength and forget the bloom food. Many Bloom foods are too high in P and lock out what little N the bloom food has. The balanced organic feeding helps correct nute deficiencies. Pictures sometimes tell lies because of lights. #10 what I see is fairly good upper growth against a fluro tube but the lower portion looks very dark? These are just things to consider they are not offered as any cut and dried solution to your problems. 6.4 ph? sure thats correct? 6.2 starts a variety of problems for soil. You get better uptake of nutes at 6.8 :eyesmoke:

You are watering but are they getting enough? 5 gallon pots can such up a lot of water. Soil in Pic #4 looks very dry.:?:
Got a couple of pictures, just a little food for thought.

This once promising seed turned into a full blown bastard. Since nothing in life is free I intend to torture this poor bastard until it gives all the information it has to give. When it drops dead I have a use for the carcass.
