THIN PLANTS!!! (PIC) Platinum Bubba Kush

The pic attached is of three platinum bubba kush plants that i am mothering. People are telling me they look a little thin, and after seeing pics on thsi site I am agreeing with them. I am very new to all of this and am seeking some advice!! Is super cropping an option? I read some threads on it and it seems like it is easy to screw up. Also the posts on doing it were not the detailed. can anyone explain this in detail? I am about to start putting them on nutes this week. I was told 20 20 20. Any insite would be much welcome!!

(They are mothers. Not going to flower them)

They DO look thin. BTW 20-20-20 is WAAAAAYY too much...more along the lines of say 10-5-7 in veg - start at 1/4 the strength recommended on the bottle and work your way up. Over nuting is one of the number one nubie mistakes!
It also looks as if your plants need more light - what is your lighting set up?

What are the temps/humidity in your room?

What is your water PH measure?

What type of soil are you using?

put ur lighting closer.... or put more lights. they look stretched out cuz they r.. ther tryin 2 reach light source

naw they dont looked stretched they just look stressed out

or it might just becuz there still young

i just noticed u have mirrors .. they work ok , but usualy create hot spots n burn parts of your plants.. go with a mylar type lining, even the insides of chip bags or flat white paint. but mirrors can be very bad.. trust me ive learned hard ways

the room is kept at 74-78F. 40-45% humidity. 200 watt MH lighting (vented on both sides with fans, glass over bulb is kept cool to the touch). ph is 5.9-6.2. soil is Ocean Forest.

I went to hydro store today and got nutes(flora nova one-part grow plant food 7-4-10, Hygrozyme) moisture meter.

should i lower the light? Another person on this board said to raise it so i tried it. When i checked moisture they are over watered and am going to reduce watering.

As for the mirrors, I put them in to inhance the lighting due to the smaller wattage bulb. The room is mylar and flat white. Should i really take the mirrors out??
