You definitely have a problem. That is not normal.
Have you cleaned your system lately?
Ppm?
Ph out?
What have you used for products?
More info please.

Yes I completely change the res every two weeks, I use Hydroguard, ppm at 530 to 600, ph 5.5 to 5.8, for nutrients I use Cutting Edge solutions at the ratio recommend on the bottle. It's hard to see but there are two different strains in the same bucket, I kinda did it as a experiment, I guess I got what I wanted. The one in the back looks healthy they get the same treatment? Thanks

Hmm my only thought initially is that you're not using enough nutrients. But the symptoms seem to me more like excess rather than deficiencies. In mid flower I'm usually around 900 to 1000 ppm.
Hope someone else can chime in.

What kinda system are we talking about here? Single bucket? Looks like K is being locked out.
If it's a single bucket that's your problem. No way in hell are you gonna keep nutrient ratios balanced for 2 weeks in that amount of volume. I would be changing every 3 days if I were you.
If that's the case

Let me make it simple if it's a 5 gal pail then you have about 3.5 gal of nutrient solution to work with. Easy rule of thumb. Everytime you add back 3.5 gals of water/nutrient solution change the water. You will see your issues disappear. This is why RDWC is so much more preferable.

I washed the roots with hydrogen peroxide and cleaned the whole system. Put it back together, and there looking better.

If your working in a single bucket for the entire life of the grow, then you need to add enzymes to keep the water in good condition, or it will go off, you will then feed some sort of bleach compound, kill all the good bacteria, and pick up root rot, it's a vicious circle other wise.

I'm using a two bucket which gives me 7 1/4 gal system, and using Hydroguard. I think water temp got to 73.4 degrees a few times, I've lowered my room temp and watch water temp closer. Only need to make it two more weeks and I'm taking them and going back to soil.

You need some cal/mag. Your plants look like they're lacking mag! And don't give up on the hydroponics!!

I have given them the recomended amount of calmag, I'm pretty sure now my roots got compromised. I broke everything down and did a cleaning of roots and buckets, equipment. My soil grow was so much less time consuming, and the amount of water I used in this hydro is ridiculous. My last soil grow was easy and yield was larger then this hydro grow. Hydro is for seasoned pro growers. Thanks for your help.

No worries. Just trying to keep the spirits high. Glad you got it figured out!
