The sativa-dominant plant in pic #4 is awful scrawny. The Blueberry is a bit light also compared to mine.
Probable reason is I'm running 1075 watts and you have 150. So, jack your plants under the light better.
Put the pots on stands or come up with another way so that your gals are closer to the light. Remember,
light operates under the square rule -- twice the distance = 1/4 the light energy. Getting them closer to the
light source will fatten up the buds and cut down on internodal distance. Means more yield and bigger nugs.

Good luck, BigSteve.

drop ur lih down for sure bro. like bigsteve said, the one plant looks scronny/strechy..most likely due to not enough light. some of the nodes look like they r 3-4 inches apart which is a for sure sign its streching for light. put ur light as close as u can to ur ladies without burring the tops. ur hand is a good indicator for checkin temp. if its too hot for ur hand, its too hot for ur girls. good luck and merry growing
