Hi my name is Cheryl and I am here to learn to grow. I have plants going but something is wrong with them. I am 6 weeks into flower but this is been going on for two. I am not sure if it is the ph or the nutrients or what. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Looks like they just need a few good feedings. What are they in, what are you feeding them, watering practices, etc?

Welcome to the farm!

Like @Oldguy71 most of us will ask your medium type. Light type and specs. Humidity and Tempatures lights on/off What neut line are you using, and what is your feeding schedule. / watering practices. The more info you can give the more help members can work off of to assist.

To me I see cal def, to start, or even light stress I’d wait for @GNick55 to check it out though

I have fed the last two weeks and they get worse after wards. ai am using General Hydroponics but growing in soil Flora Series where I feed once a week. My light could be too hot even though I have it at 80% and check the par.
Ill add the extra info the gentleman asked for. I am using Spider Farmer 3000 lights and in week 6 of flowering and keeping the ph at 6.0 till last couple of waterings went to 6.3 -6.5. I water daily and feed weekly. All was good till the feedings then it all fell apart. Soil is Happy Frog with Ocean forest on the bottom.
Temperature is too high at night around 80s and humidity around 44 or so. I try to go with the chart best I can of the correct ratio but lately the tent has been getting too hot maybe I should turn the light down.

If they are in happy frog stop watering daily! You should water only when the pot is very light. Watering too often doesn’t let the roots take in the nutrients.

I posted a long paragraph of everything and dont see it now but the happy frog was part of it. Thats the soil I am using with Oceans forest on the bottom the par 3on the light is around 700-800 or so I have my light at about 80% but its a 3000 so I will dim it. I ph around 6.0-6.5 I just increased that I was at 6.0 but thought that could be the problem. I fed medium feed of the 3 part flora series of general hydroponics.
When I have fed them the last two times they looked burnt the next day so I am very confused on what to feed them.

So for watering, it’s best to wait until the pot is very light, like it filled with styrofoam. Then water/ feed slowly so all the soil gets wet, for a 3 gallon pot it should take about 3/4 gallon for 5 gal pot about 1 gallon. When a plant has been underfed for awhile it sometimes looks worse when you feed it because it starts trying to grow again but hasn’t caught up on all the nutrients yet. It will get over it with a couple feedings. If you were feeding it when the soil was still wet/ moist it just adds to the overwatering and make the nutrients unavailable to the plant causing it to look worse.
My recommendation is to wait for the pot to dry out and give it a good balanced feeding. Until then you can give it a few foliar feedings by mixing up a gallon of regular feed, ph it, add 8-10 drops of liquid soap so the spray doesn’t bead up on the leaves. Spray the leaves well too and bottom. Since you’re in flower try to avoid spraying the buds, a little overspray is fine. When foliar feeding I turn off the lights for an hour or until the leaves are pretty dry to avoid burn
If your plant had too much nutrients, enough to cause burning, it would be dark green with shiny leaves. I can’t see any signs that they’ve ever had too much nutrients .
