Weak light/s . like SSHZ said. In my opinion, not trolling but those look like revegged clones. Or partially budded plants. That's what I'm seein from prospective
im considering quitting in the middle of flowering and starting all over. here is why...

If light leak has been 100% ruled out you might have an issue with your light cycle. If you're dealing with a bunch of wildly different phenos of a Haze variety then 12/12 might be too much light for one or more of them. Dial the light back to 11/13 or even 10/14 and see what happens. The problem with that is that some of the plants seem to be liking the 12/12 cycle just fine. I wouldn't rip them all out at day 60, but the plants that are barely budding 60 days in are probably a waste of time at this point. I would cut your losses with those.... literally.
Another possibility here is that your lights might be too weak (too far away from the plants), or too old. You might want to check them with a light meter to make sure that you are getting enough lumens.
When I experiment with seeds I typically put only one or two seed born females in with my other plants. Part of the reason is because I don't like unpredictable crops. Seeds are such a crap shoot and when I do grow from seed I end up being disappointed 90% of the time. That being said, I would rather have a crop with 14 clones that I'm familiar with and 2 seed plants that I know nothing about vs. 16 seed plants that could leave me with a pile of shit after 8 weeks, or whatever. I don't have time for that sort of thing and I think it's safe to say that most people here feel the same way.

ive dialed back my timer, and replaced it. i also dealt with any possible light leak. the changes seem to be helping somewhat. its still to early to say. i will also not do a weekly clean out and wait a couple extra days. definitely a lot more white pistils. i cant see any signs of any turning herme either. hopefully all is well. i just have a extra long flowering period left. my light is brand new so i dont think that is a problem. unfortunately it is so hot, and one of my plants is so much taller than the others, that it is much higher than the tops of the others. but i dont think its a major issue. ill have an update soon, but all seems well. thanks for the tips

Ah, heat issues. That's likely at least part of the problem here. Heat will stress out a plant and cause all sorts of unusual behavior. If the heat really gets to a plant it will never recover and will basically be a waste of space.
The tall plant that you mentioned will be affected by the heat even more. If you think you can salvage it I suggest bending it over. Be careful not to snap the main stem, but plants can usually tolerate being bent over and tied down. It will look a bit strange, but yield won't be significantly affected.
