Suggestions first time grower

This is my first time growing. My plants are about 2 weeks. I had two questions, i have 2 55w t5 tubes that emit 4,8000 lumen at 2700k will this be enough for flowering? Right now I'm using 2 55 watt t5's that are 6500k and emit 5,500 Lumen each. I have like 3 or 4 spiral CFL's that emit 1450 lumen each. How do you think my plants look so far? Only one of them so far smells skunky and that is the smallest one :p As you can see though some leaves have this weird yellow shit around them... Only have three plants, first grow started small. Im only looking for at least an OZ from each plant.

By the way i mixed the seeds up but they are either Strawberry cough Big Bud and Ak 47 one is definitely SC but others could be either BB SC or AK. The AK is auto flower by the way.

I also tried to "top" my last two.... don't know if i did that right...

Have you started feeding them? Looks like you may have burned them, doesn't look like a deficiency. They'll bounce back though if that is the case.

Also T5's and CFL's can flower, but the more light the better. I dont want to be that guy, but if you really want some dense nugs that are worth the time, get a small HID lamp.

Otherwise lookin good!
 
Thanks! I did use neptunes harvest organic fertilizer.... figured it wasn't that strong of a nute to use guess the leaves show other wise. Ill check out some HID's. That link helped a lot too kinddiesel, almost looks to be nuts burn or a calcium deficiency. Gordo what have your results been like with the 150w mini sunburst, and my tent is 36x20x60 how high from the plants should the sunburst be without burning them. I do have an inline fan with a carbon filter and an air purifier on the plants to have a steady breeze.
