dro in the closet.

Before I start I would like to state that I am a newb. on my first grow, also any advice is greatly appreciated.
- First off let me describe my grow room: 2'x3' (roughly) with white poster board on the surrounding 3 walls of my closet (i was told that reflects the best). Also I am using a T5 high florescent light system, 2 hot and 2 cold bulbs. This is the best light i could get a hold of without spending too much money. Right now my light cycle is 18on/6off. Also I water when the plants become dry about .5in to 1 in below the top soil level.
I decided I would grow 3 plants (bagseed) 2 of the seeds came from a bag of very good weed, up near $100/quarter. (where im from i can get a quarter of very good mids for right around $40). And the third seed came from a bag of the $40 a quarter weed. Plant 1&2 are the highs and 3 is mids (for reference).
I started the plants on August 28th and within 5 days they all were sprouting. From the start everything was fine, after about 2-3 weeks I started to notice that the leaves at the very bottom of all 3 plants began to die, while others near the bottom began to turn yellow, and would eventually die off. The rest of the plant is fine. They still grow fine and the stem structure is very good. Is this a common problem, and how can I fix this? I dont want any of the plants to die.
- Also plant number 3 grew too much one night and got very close to the light and 2 leaves at the top became brown. I was wondering what kind of damage that did to the plant? will it still grow? Also a friend told me about nute. spikes so i will be adding one to each of the plants (experimental). Any comments will help, I just wanted to say thanks in advance for any help.
