Are you sure you're not being a little over protective? Other than maybe being a little N drunk, they look like they're jamming to me....Welp. Looks like I have another self inflicted wound on my grow.
I had been concerned with the deep green of the GX for a while but now I see the other 2 plants are hiding the same problem but without the green.
If I put the mainline plants under more then 16k which is a pitiful amount of energy I roast the tips and one has swirling leaves and a self cull for 1/4 of a leaf.

None of the plants are moving water I am just getting a slow dry on the pots. Ni water in 5 days and pots way heavy for watering.
Now I have to figure out what I did.
I do not think it is nutrition as the widows look awesome

and I am following the same plan.
These pots were set up 10 days early with nemetodes and I had problems with germination. The pots dried way back and on install all the water I gave the plants got sucked away and I just caught that and saved the 2 BBMR plants.
When I bobbed the mainline back I think I should have gone back in water amounts and started watering the plant instead of the pot. It was a 2 inch stem with a 8 inch twig with 10 leaves. I should not have been soaking the pot at this point as there was no growth to use up the water.
Pretty sure I got bad wet feet. When you pick up the pot and wiggle it back and forth you can feel the center of gravity is very low in the pot.
So I have 2 options from looking at diaries with this problem.
1 dry it back and get the pot light and do a slow full watering.
2 do a top water of 500 ml to get the soil on the first 6 inches watered but let the bottom of the pot continue to clear up. Continue with this until pot gets light.
If the pots were drying normal I would say they are 2 days from being light. Since they are not I donno and the GX is looking sad

You definitely hit the nail on the head regarding removing leaves and transpiration. Less stomata on the plant equals less evaporation. But you said "the plants are not moving water". And they never will. They are essentially a straw with a valve at the top and the bottom.Welp. Looks like I have another self inflicted wound on my grow.

I soak plant....5 gallon fabric pot. I start with 1/2gallon water/nute mixture....every 3rd day. Bump it up to 1 gallon water/nutes every 3 days....mid to late flower the middle day if plant is droopy i will give it a taste of water. I was taught that plant needs that dry cycle....Welp.

Looks awesome....remember it's a weed.....really hard to kill them....even the ones that are into S &M.Are you sure you're not being a little over protective? Other than maybe being a little N drunk, they look like they're jamming to me....
I am thinking that I should have greatly reduced water after the bob. I was aware of the stall after topping and in my journal I never watered day of or just before a top to avoid this but my mistake was clear in the journal. Water after bob was 2 liters and they went 5 days and should have gone longer as I compounded the issue.I soak plant....5 gallon fabric pot. I start with 1/2gallon water/nute mixture....every 3rd day. Bump it up to 1 gallon water/nutes every 3 days....mid to late flower the middle day if plant is droopy i will give it a taste of water. I was taught that plant needs that dry cycle....
I see 8 nice colas in your future...Watered GCGSC with 1.2 liters ro water.
Watered BBMR with 1 liter water.
I added the water very slowly. After 30 minutes the BBMR plant did well as the whole bottom of the plant got slightly damp.
The GX got wet the entire outer of the pot slightly damp. I had a little dampness in the middle of the bottom.
The BBMR with sensor is looking ready for 12/12

All tops have 2 levels for both BBMR and GX plants. The other 2 are very tiny yet.
Widows being widows kicking ass.
So 3 plants 8 colas.I see 8 nice colas in your future...
Watering by weight of the pot never lies. This type of growing is what brought me into the training side of what I do with floaters.Update thoughts
With the mainline plants taking off I am going to post another error in my grow for the mainlines.
After the bob from this.

Not only should I have slowed the roll on the water but the nutrition needs were also greatly reduced. I should have held off on the next Top Dress for a week or maybe even 2 weeks. I am sure with the magic fairy dust the conversion after bob was way over the needs for a while.
Looking back I think I watered ok but I should have been more patient waiting on the pot to clear before watering the second time.
The good thing is that with all the drama I did not top dress the last 2 mainlines so will be prolly doing that next watering. This will lengthen top dress from 2 weeks to 23 days.
Lessons learned.
They look so much better.
Like the hanger idea.Update
Top dressed BBMR #2 and watered with 1.5 liters ro.
Pulled top 8 horizontal and will let move 3-6 inches and then turn up.

Got the hangers in the corners and turned my 31x31 tent back into a 31x31 tent
Clearance on all walls now.
