Can someone please help me out, i don't know what is wrong and i haven't been able to find anything that seems to fit all of the symptoms. They used to be a great green color, started noticing the color change 3-4 days ago. My Plants are almost 70 days old, they have been outside for two weeks or so, they spent the first week in a greenhouse outside but the greenhouse was too hot an humid i believe, temperatures reached almost 95° at times during the day with high humidity, the entire greenhouse would be covered in moisture in the morning, The topsoil of the plants are dry, the bottom soil is a little moist, iv improved drainage, haven't watered them in a few days, they are in genetic potting soil, i did however use some nutrients shortly after putting them in the greenhouse, blooming and rooting with numbers 9-58-8 on the front of the container i think it refers to NPK ratio? My wife uses it in her garden figured it wouldn't hurt (oops). Before you ask i use city water from the garden hose 🤦‍♂️😬, i wont be able to afford enough distilled water when they start requiring larger amounts when they get bigger. I hope i can save them without help they might die, i keep getting conflicting information about drooping, yellowing an curling of the leafs ive never seen leafs twist an get brownish blk spots before, ive seen mights an poweder mildew before but not everything that is going on with them now. Ive looked myself and have not been able to find a explanation so im asking for help from the group

Your pictures present as Nitrogen deficiency; but may just be overall nutrient deficiency but that won't be the only problem going forward. Now that the plants have been moved to outside, from? You didn't mention what timing regime you were using prior to moving outside, but now that you have, these plants will start to bloom. That also can be part of the problem with the yellowing of the leaves, as plants in bloom will pull nutrients from the leaves (causing them to yellow) to power formation of the buds...

Oh crap i didn't even think about the change in lighting, i had them on 24 hour multi spectrum UV grow lights since they grew up out of the dirt, i dont think they were full spectrum UVs unfortunately, the ones i used were all i had an could afford i started them to see if they would grow an i wasn't 100% prepared i started to transition and acclimate to outside 20-30 days ago when the weather started to warm up during the day. I grew them from seeds i had from a few years ago and i believe the pack they came in said non-feminized seeds, if that helps i didn't find much information if any on the strain itself unfortunately. You have been a really big help i appreciate this it, that makes sense i also noticed they have a few purple stripes down the stock, white spots on the leaves, they also seem dry im afraid to do anything to them until I can transplant them

Not sure what’s going on in that last shot. Give them some water and veg nutrients whatever you do, keeping moisture in the soil will help keep the root ball together when you transplant (into larger pots?). Don’t concern yourself with any thoughts about distilled water, and what PH your soil is, that’s for when you’ve gotten through a few grows. They all will be different, you’ll make plenty of mistakes along the way, so just try to learn what you did wrong and what you’ll do differently next time. PS start a log of what you’re doing, what happened and how you fixed whatever was wrong if you were able to, refer back to that as you get through the basic’s of keeping your plants alive through to harvest.
Concern yourself with fine tuning one aspect in the next grow, ie bigger plant going into bloom.
Why your soil is wet at the bottom and dry on top, stuff like that...(mix in perlite to help retain water throughout the soil mix). good luck, get reading.
Learn what the shorter fall hours of sunlight does to a plant, and why you can’t put a plant outdoors before the first week of June.
