I water every other day. The soil gets really dry also, so thats why I water it as much as I do. The temp is always about 80 or so.

Its possible that the soil is still wet underneath... stick your finger deep into the soil like ur fingerin ur girl... feel for the wetness in the soil

I had problems when i grew with soil so i switched to hydro.. i had muchrooms growing out the sides of my containers lol.. literally.. and they stuned the growth .... i dont know a whole lot about soil tho bro.. do u have a ph meter, ppm meter, and soil tester to test the water level in the soil?

dont worry about hitting the roots.. just stick one of your fingers deep in the soil towards the side of the pots and away from the trunk of the plant

I use the blue spectrum 26 watt cfls. Ive got a big 40 watt one too, right in between both plants. Donts exactly know the lumens. But I know its somewhere in the thousands for the 26watters

I dont know if this would fix the problem but i suggest putting more light bulbs on there.. htgsupply.com has a 150 watt hps fixture for 80 bucks.....
