Here are some photos of my quite sick looking females.

I've had these plants for about a month from clones in soil. I have them under 200w of CFLs. I currently have a fungus gnat problem I'm trying to resolve by putting pearlite on top of the soil to kill the larvae and some fly paper to catch the adults. Will fungus gnats cause the leaves to die like this? This problem has been going on for 3 weeks now and only seems to be getting worse. I fed them once before they started turning yellow and I've flushed with 100% water for two weeks and it's only getting worse. I am definitely not over watering as I have been only watering once a week they don't seem to be very thirsty so maybe a root problem? I've used this brand of soil before and had good results. My runoff PH seems fine at 6.5. What am I missing or are the gnats my problem?
