first off you have weird growth on those girls. see how the nodes do not have matching pairs of branches and a lot of the leaves seem to be only one 'finger' this kinda looks like nitrogen over fert... should be cutting the nitrogen down from where it was in veg and upping the P and K. P moreso tho. kinda looks like the plant might be trying to revegg... or its a kind of weak genetics and thats why its got that lame growth pattern.

The leaves that look like this:

...are Phosphorus deficient. The leaves with the browning blade edges are Potassium deficient. They need alot more food but you must check your soil pH first. The plants cannot make use of nutrients in the wrong pH range and until the pH is where it should be (~5.9 for your mix), they will get worse no matter what you feed them.
