First and formost, if that is you ph probe I would invest in a good one, second? is there and bugs any where, or white flies? PH is usually where you start I see a bit of over watering also.

Fill us in, Huawoi.
What is your pH (water and soil) and what's your feeding schedule? I'm seeing a lot of burning on the tip of your margins.
What's going on with the foil and plastic?
Not ripping on you, Friend
, just need a bit more info. Take heart, man, your gals are far from dying, but let's see about getting them in tip top! 
Well i'm using basic potting soil for flowers, know now that that isn't really the best soil to use for it but yeah.. First try and thought that wouldve been Okay ;D started with giving them canna flores from week 1 till 6 there is when it got bad.. After that someone in my other post told me i had to get a ph meter to check the ph. So i did and the ph of the then sick plant was way to low around 4-5 bought some other products with a high ph lvl and started to give this.
Now in short i have 3 plants 1 of them is probably wasted.. Tried what they told me by flushing it but i thick it was to late.. At that moment the plant in the back (pics) was in my eyes very good looking, but after it started to get the same problems as the wasted one. With the yellow dry spots etc. And there are no bugs or flies in the environment.
Also got Some pics of the products i'm giving now the first 1 is liquid the second one are "grains" dont know of thats the right word.
And then my lamp is a 250w hps with blooming colors i'ts on 24/24, used a 400w with cool colors to grow it.

Als you can see the plant,in the bottom is like fucked up.. The middle one is staying like that didnt get any improvements or got worse. And the one above is the one that was going very well until recently. 
Here are some pics of the evolution of the bottom one.
Oh and to answer that other question, i thought the foil wouldve been good to reflect the light upwards. The plastic bag around the pot is to keep the water inside

yo bro, first thing i noticed is yeah they look overwatered and damp.
I would get rid of the plastic bags around the pots, use a tray underneath them to catch the drain off water & don't let them sit in it, raise them out of it, ie grills across the tray(s) etc.. plenty of ideas how to keep your pots off the ground.
Reason being, this lets the water drain out and away from them, do not let them feed on it. most important!
it contains all the shite your plant doesn't want, salt buildups etc.. so ive never let my plants drink what they 'eject'
...If your getting too much run off water when feeding tho and that is the main reason for the bags,,,, then water them slower bro, from the middle. start with little puddle first and give her time to soak. if you put too much on her, the water will just 'bore' its way out of your pot, waste of feed.
I learnt that from here many years ago and by jiminy it works! essential info.
Some actually water with plain ph'd water first so the soil moistens before feeding starts aswell. so plenty of methods out there, just don't let them bottom drink their own shite. lol
ventilation and good air flow is a must, especially at pot level. Airpots are probably the best for that as they covered in holes.
So, change your setup dude, get good air flow underneath them and around them so they can dry out properly.
If you water plants too much they become lazy anyway, don't grow as much, I water mine on the brink of drying out. just as the lower level of leaves start to sag or its Dry/moist on the moisture probe
And yeah I also agree that get a separate better ph meter, if that is your correct soil ph reading then it is too high.
But,. the soil will 'buffer' it before it gets to your plant so for a more accurate reading of PH, test the run off/drainage water, that will tell you more.
Foil on the top is ok, but again, it can trap moisture.
Lightmix soil for everything bro aswell is the best bet to start with, nice and 'light' on the feed for germination to seedling, then you can feed aswell without worrying about too much. BioBizz Light Mix is the best on the market imo
second atami janyco lightmix. Ive tried all the others and they just seem to be too rich.
Good for the experts out there tho, but for a 'bung it in and grow' dude like me? Lightmix all the way.
well, without writing an even more biblical post, ill end it here for now.
Best of luck to you and your plants bro, if your going to start again with a new setup,then my final advice would be.. preparation is the key and prevention is better than the cure.
Plan it all out, ventilation, drainage & watering, and youll be sorted.
it is a weed after all and will grow in many harsh conditions but with the perfect conditions, you'll outgrow your tent lol.
Peace.

Ok thank you very much for the info After these are gone i Will certainly try it again but this time.. Prepared! 
so is there anything i can stil do to save the one in the back or is it useless without the good soil and pot? I removed the bag already and got them on a plate, gonna get something Tomorrow to get em off the ground to.

And how do you mean the ph is to high? It is around 6-7 and it should be around 8, atleast that is what i read somewhere >.> no offence!

5.8 is where your PH should be. May I suggest in the future to use a soil less mix. Make a switch to advanced nutrients PH perfect line up go with the hobbyist line go to there website check out there calculator. If in the future you are interested in that format. I can be of a help. Make sure you have excellent air movement to boot overkill on exhaust and ventulation and more than enough light too

Hu'-- that's K defc. starting on the other plant, and the only product you have for this is the 4-6-6, as mentioned in the other thread, and even this is not optimal for blooming; you need a higher PK bloom product! ..meantime, give them a round of feeds with it at full strength,...
