Sounds to me that they're probably showing some sort of nutrient deficiency, but its hard to be positive without pictures to see...
As for using "rippen" during the last two weeks, you'd have to consult the directions and ingredients... from what I understand, you're not supposed to feed anything but carbohydrates for the last week or so to flush the nutrients from the soil... is "rippen" a nutrient, or is it just sugars?
I can't figure out how to copy the text from the post but here is a link to a form you should fill out to give us a bit more info on your plants...
-------------------- My best run so far

if you've been feeding them nothing but plain water and the leaves are yellowing in the second week of flowering, my guess is that they need some food and are exhibiting signs of a N deficiency right now.
Cannabis stretches a lot in the first two weeks before it focuses on creating bud. Uses up a bit of N in this process which most likely got used from your leaves since there probably wasn't any available in your soil.
That's my guess from what you described anyhow.

You won't really be able to green them up now that they are flowering most of there energy is going into flowering not vegatative growth if you try to boost them with N now you might just end up burning them

Well, what I think we should say is don't just go dump a shit load of N in your food expecting them to green up over night. If they haven't been fed in a while, just feed them. You could probably get away with a little heavier feeding the first time, but then I would stick to whatever feeding plan you have after that.
