I noticed these bushy plants are having saggy leaves,is this normal? I just threw them into flowering about a week ago. My other 2 plants are perky as all hell, yet they aren't nearly as bushy

I noticed the bigger my plants got the thirstier they got and the soil kept drying out a bit faster:P my plants also sag a bit sometimes if i look at them right at the beginning of their light period, or end of their dark period, they seem to perk up during the light hours.
I'm pretty new to growing myself hopefully someone here can give you a better diagnostic, goodluck man!

The way i tell is if the stems aren't drooping any but the leaves are then its over watered.
If the stems and leaves are drooping then it needs more water:P

A common idea is to feel the weight of the bucket. Dry soil being very light

Sometimes if the bottom doesn't get enough light.... It doesn't look all that happy though down there either way

I have a 23 watt cfl midpoint in the middle of 4 plants and the 2 shaggier plants are the ones losing leaves and sagging.

You mean as a supplement, or that's what you're using? The other things you could look at is the water you're giving them or ensuring nothings eating them.
not sure if you're checking ph but are you using chlorine free water at least? Water when the bucket feels light Add water slowly until it runs out the bottom a good amount
Are you using nutrients?

No, I have em under a 400 watt HPS at the moment, with the cfl standing in the middle between the 4
I transitioned from (2-1-6) veg nutes to (5-0-1) what I am using now. Also to note that I transplanted the two suffering plants to different pots a couple days ago.. trauma? Pretty sure its not bugs, I dealt with spider-mites a while ago and am pretty familiar with their signs. I feel like maybe I havent been watering enough.

Sometimes plants bum out for a bit after transplanting. water em if needed. water immediately after a transplant is standard in botony

50% or more dead/damaged is what I stick to. Pretty sure that's what Cervantes says.

I wouldn't. although bottom pruning isn't always so bad.... Yellowed leaves often recover if their cause is corrected
