First grow - White Skunk - Whats wrong with my Plant

HI
I have just entered the 4th week of flowering my White skunk plants in soil. I’m using a 400 watt hps on the 12/12 cycle. I’m using the Grotek Nutrients and I’m following the directions very carefully. My plants seem to need watering every two days.
Two of my plants seem to be growing well. However the plant I’m having the issues with is the tallest of the three and the leaves from the buds are long and narrow and the leaves are pointing down. The good plants leaves are spread out and pointing out straight. I’m wondering is my plant in shock due to my grow room getting extremely hot one day.
I have also noticed the bigger leaves which I think are called the fan leaves have changed colour on all three plants, slightly yellow.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. I have attached two photos

Hard to tell the colors of the leaves, the 2nd pic their color seems to be ok.

It could be overwater or a heat related issue

Thanks for the speedy replies, all three plants have been getting the same amount of water and nutrients. Im not sure why the tallest plant grew over 8 inches taller then the other plants. Maybe it got more light, Im new to this so i really don't know. How do you fix a nitrogen overdose problem, and is there any reason why the other plants are not suffering the same problems?

reason it grew taller is it could have not go enough light so it had to stretch out taller to get more this isint a good thing...but i cant really tell if this is the case by the pics you posted...and im sorta a noob myself but i would say a good flushing would help out alot and maybe cut back on the feeding abit on this particular plant?

Plants are like fingerprints.

While very similar in many ways, every one is different. Some plants just react differently to nute doesages. While 1 plant might be LOVING the nutes, another might not be ready for them.

Don't give them any nutes next week, just plain water and see how they react.

Also, your plants dont need any special Nitrogen feedings during flowering. High N in veg, high P K in flower.

During flowering, the plant stores all its nitrogen in the big fan leaves, at the end of her flowering when you see her leaves starting to dry up and fall off, she's sucking up all the stored nutes (mostly N) in the fan leaves (thats why they die and fall off).

Hi
I'll hold of feeding the sick plant any nutes for a week and I'll flush it to-morrow. Thats interesting why one plant grew taller the other plants in the grow room, you learn a little every day!
 
Superbak3d is the only one that has given u correct information. Disregard what the others have told u. It is natural that the fan leaves are yellow, the buds are sucking the nutrition from them. Donot take off the yellow fan leaves they have nutrients in them that will feed the buds. Let them fall off by them selfs. And as for your tall plant it is fine you have a sativa pheno. That means that plant has taken more of its sativa heritage. Most sativas leaves are thin long and they hang. I am growing white skunk myself and am on 2 weeks flower. Can't wait to get couch locked. Oh and don't stop feeding. Mix a few table spoons of unsulferd molassis with a gallon of water, this will give your plants the p they need and u will see some nice results quick
