I'm going to guess a multi-micro nutrient deficiency/lockout.
That speckling seems to be signs of a calcium deficiency... but be careful on how you diagnose/treat micro. It isn't always a lack of one... it could be an excess of another... or a PH issue.
I would assume PH is somewhat of a low risk if your soil is good at buffering, or you PH your watering solution, but rule things out systematically... not by assumptions

Could be ph as i dont ph my water but my runoff usually comes out at 6.4 and its not all over my plabts just a little bit here and there, i dont think its anything to worry about but just checkingI'm going to guess a multi-micro nutrient deficiency/lockout.

I'm with xtsho, I see what is likely bug damage in the 1st set of pictures. 2nd set of pictures are not useful to view with grow lights on. Need good pictures like the ones up top that show the normal color.
The yellowing is likely a separate issue but I'm pretty sure you have leaf miners from the original pictures.

Ill get some better pics up of the yellowing tomorrow at some point and leaf miners eh? I was thinking thrips or aphids, any good juices you would recomend to rid me of the miners? Still in veg atm

First turn off the HPS take a pic with normal light then add Epsom salts to your feed water and yes feed them lightly, I would probably foiler feed with Epsom to start. I would also let soil dry out a bit more between waterings.

It is good that you are still in veg, best to try to resolve it before going into flowering. Get some more pictures to make sure. Others can suggest the best way to deal with them.
Thrip larvae are leaf miners.
Googles definition of leaf miners:
Leafminers are the larvae of various insects including beetles, flies and moths. Larvae are usually very small, reaching between 1/5" and 1/8" in length. The leafminer larvae live inside of the leaves of plants and trees, feeding on the soft, inner plant tissue found between the upper and lower sides of the leaf.

Ill get better pics up tonight or tomorrow and ive never used epsom salts but ill give it a try 100% and yeah im gonna start letting them go dry before watering from now on im using bio bizz light mix soil no food as of yet as the soil contains food for the first 3 weeks same for the ph it keeps my runoff at around 6.4 i havent checked the ph of my water i put in, i will check tonight and update.they literally have been getting just plain water up until now i was due to start feeding this week, i will be using canna terra vega and canna flores for flower and ah i didnt know that about the leaf miners, what would everyone reccomend to get rid? And thanks all for the information its much appretiated, happy toking.
