Pull back on the nutes?

Was hoping to get some feedback on how this plant looks in regards to the amount of nutes being given, if it looks like it’s getting to be too much nitrogen.
My gut is saying pull back nute amount, but wanted some other opinions.
35 days from flip, water, water, feed. They’ve only been fed the Tiger Bloom I have twice. First feeding was 2tsp per gal, 2 gal per plant, second feeding was 2.5 tsp per gal.
I was losing lower canopy leaves and wanted to see how it responded to extra nutes on the second feed. Most likely losing leaves from my less than ideal lighting, but what are your thoughts?3488F0AC-F337-4940-9A64-C7361610C11C.jpeg739C8CFA-76CE-4F73-B418-E8A86655776F.jpeg839108A2-ADEF-4584-99EC-F27DCC502B79.jpeg239CBCF7-1D43-4C6E-B82F-F6DDD580DCE0.jpeg00B6C0BE-C0D5-4FF0-A67C-11E572D9DDA8.jpeg3488F0AC-F337-4940-9A64-C7361610C11C.jpeg

What size containers do you have there and how much runoff occurs with the 2 gallon feeding? Also what medium in the containers?

5 gal fabric pots, I’d say a good 20-25%, using a mix of FFOF & FFHF, didn’t give any kind of nutrients until first week of 12/12 switch.

The stretch and leaves lean sativa so maybe just a lighter feed for a week or two. If two gallons of liquid achieves 20-25% runoff, one approach i have used for a lighter feeding is to apply one gallon of just water, then an hour later one gallon with 1-2 tsp or whatever is a light rate per gallon. This can be played with but the idea is to feed when soil is already moist, can help plants manage uptake

Thanks, I’ll give that a try
