Hi 👋 new here would just like some advice on my girls, second time growing with this autopot system 1st time round I had medical issues during the end of flower couldn't chop down in time ended up with a dead plant and loads of bud rot, but anyways this is my second time around and my girls are coming to end of 1st week since I switched to 12/12 they haven't grown all that much at all, not the growth spurt I was expecting anyways, my tallest and bushiest is a Malibu gold OG (only 14") got multiple heads through training (trained all the rest the same way but without the same results 🤷🏾‍♂️) they all look healthy AF only prob I see in them is that the bud sites are very a pale green compared to the rest of the plant, any advice with this would be very welcome

Have you defoliated at all? And the yellowing is the new growth

Yes but only enough to uncover bud sites, because they've been growing so slowly I didn't want to take too much off them and shock them

How far is that light from the canopy?
36 inches, on the left it's 16" from the tallest plant (which is the minimum recommended by the manufacturer) and 21" from the rest same for the right side (24" max) 1500w output 450w draw

Are the leaf tips crawling a bit or is it just the photo angle?

I have 2 plants with slight claw on older leaves but other than that no problems at all, I use the shogun range, samurai grow, samurai bloom, sumo active boost, shogun pk warrior 9/18, shogun zenzyme (to keep my system clean)

geisha foliar spray, sumo active boost foliar spray and dragon force to finish.... Oh and advanced nutrients rhino skin which I've just added which is oh perfect and so far I haven't need to adjust pH once neither did I have to last grow and that was epic

Looks perfectly normal as growing plants normal is. Some plants stretch much more than others, typically but with outliers is the sativa and sativa leaning hybrids.
Whats the medium in those pots...coco/perlite?

I'm growing 3 Malibu gold OG (the little plant was a mutant OG took ages to grow but when she started doing something I couldn't kill her 😅) they're indica Dom the 4 on the left are honey melon haze ( yes I messed up they're 14days apart in flowering time, drying is gonna be a bitch) I used to hand water in Coco all the time but it was a pain in the arse, constant nutrient problems, so I switched back to canna pro soil and bought an 8 pot system and not an issue in sight. This is my last grow 2 weeks before harvest.

I meant the 4 plants on the right not the left

Careful with soiless mix in the Autopots, it never gets a dryback cycle. Canna likes a wet/dry cycle. Even Coco in autopots, the bottom 1-2" stays saturated 100% of the time, and capillary action wicks the nutes/water up into the medium.
At any case they look very good at this point, in fact the ones on the right look great all very consistent in size, nice round bushy structure, I'd just splay them out low and wide and keep on chuggin.
I'm sorry, I'm just not seeing any issues that are are seeing,(not saying they aren't there, you're seeing something that concerns you, I'm just not seeing it at this point)

My 1st grow I using the autopot I chucked in straight canna terra plus and no issues at all, then I found out I should have put some clay pebbles in the bottom 1st, it didn't seem to effect them. This time round I did the same thing only I was a little impatient and didn't let the plants root out or the soil to dry properly and turned the system on which is why I believe their growth was a bit stunted and white mould began to appear on the top soil and green mildew so I had to switch it off for a week and let the soil dry out which worked, scraped off the top layer of soil and sprayed the soil with a light mix of apple cider vinegar/water and it's never came back (so that works 👌🏾) thanks for your input.

UPDATE 🌱 day 15 of flower not much growth on the right which are the honey melon haze, I expected a rapid growth spurt from them being sativa Dom 🤷🏾‍♂️ I should be switching to bloom nutes now but none of them really look ready, the closest is the big Malibu OG gold on the middle left, they all look healthy so I don't understand the height discrepancies other than genetics, I'm thinking I should give them another week on grow alongside sumo boost active, zenzyme and AN rhino skin till buds form properly.
