Do leaves turn light green when they are hungry?

So I haven’t fed any of my plants I have just let them eat through the food in the FFOF Soil since it has food in the soil . So only one of my plants has light green leaves and I was wondering if that happens because of shortage of food I know sometimes it has something to do with nitrogen but ! Idk oh and also it’s sadly in flower being so small so yea .

Generally yes, but it depends where. That looks like you're starting to get chlorosis at the top leaves first. Am I correct? Two things, is this soil and have you fed the plant yet?
 
It does appear that the fan leaves have some slightly clawing on them too. If that is soil? What type? It may be hot as hell.

And no I haven’t fed it yet it yet will start this week as it’s week 4 I’ve been told it’s good to let the soils food diminish before feeding ..

Ok. Good. If you honestly havent added anything just yet, add a little bit of nutes and feed them. You should see a fairly strong response from them if they are deficient.

From doing my soil grows I've released that less is more, including water and nutes. How's the watering been going? With fabric pots it's really hard, almost impossible, to over water, have you gave them a nice watering lately?

Yes water twice a day if needed only water wen pots are light and not heavy gonna feed on Monday when I get more ph up ran out
 
Plant small like this in pot big like this should not show any kind of deficiency for a long time. One or two foods max in her whole life IMo.
 
Lighter green = Nitrogen def

It can also be caused by your PH being out of balance preventing the plant to intake Nitrogen so try keep your PH between 6.5-6.8.

To add to this, underwatering or overwatering can cause yellowing as well. There may be nutrients in the soil, but if water isnt present( or there is too much) it can cause what appears to be a nutrient deficiency. If you havent gave them a good watering in a while, they may need it.

I have other plants besides cannabis and if i dont water correctly it can cause what looks like phosphorus or even a magnesium deficiency.

OP, think about what you have done lately and try narrowing down what you might think it is. Start low and go slow. Plants are simple and they dont need a lot to grow. Maybe to flourish you have to dial things in perfectly, but a plant will grow in almost any environment.
