I was given a couple plants, one in late veg (photos included) looks like it has a slight start of a deficency, not sure what it is. leaves are kind of curly, and starting to yellow toward middle and bottom of the plant... other than that it looks overall healthy. I'm not much of a grower but I am a smoker hence why these were given to me.

the second one, is obviously in flower. Has problems, the stalk/some stems are purple, buds are small and im not seeing a lot of growth over the last week. I'm not sure how far into flower it is, with that being said ive been keeping it on the 12/12 light schedule because I know that's what they need when they're in flower.

I've also included pictures of the lights that I have, I have two kinds of nutrients just here at my house ive also included pictures of those. I haven't given them anything yet because I dont know what they need and dont want to hurt them any more than they clearly already are.

I just want to reverse any damage thats happening, if at all possible!
they're in some pretty decent soil from what I've gathered from the person who gave them to me, dont think they've had anything crazy as far as nutrients added or anything besides the fact he did mention neem oil was used on the plant thats now in flower when it was in veg...

I have a 4x4 tent but can can get something else if thats not my best option?

I'm not an expert, just looking for help not ridicule! anything is appreciated!!

You could keep flowering the plants off but I don't think there very healthy and I would question the soil.
TBH if they where my plants I would chop them in half, change the soil, use 15% sand, 15% perlite, mixed in with some good quality compost, you want the compost to drain fast and not hold too much water for too long and reveg them back under 18/6 for a few weeks under the tubes
They will bush out and become massive and healthy, then flower them off.
They will look like different plants and you will pull a much large crop.

even though its in flower???? it will continue to grow? sorry im new to this not trying to sound like a complete idiot.
any suggestions as to brands that I should buy or does it just not matter at this point? I'll probably go pick it up tomorrow.

Your right the plants in flower, you need a healthy bushy plant before flowering it off, once in flower, about 3 weeks, you can't change much, if its a weak stretch plant, your pulling a low crop and you can't change this, its a waste of time imo.
you could buy seeds or re veg, both ways are going to take 4-5 week before flowering the plant off again.

They just need food,mix up some half strength and water it in.If they'd never had any before go a little stronger.Give them veg food.

Did you look at the second picture, the container of soil is massive compare to the plant(small plant), maybe the plant could do with some food but your not going to pull much off her, and the second plants not much better(larger plant) but there no soil in the pot.

Yea shitty soil and probably a little over water.

Even with that amount of soil the plant should look good.So either its an over water or that soil is just bad.If no food has been added logic says add some and see.They look bad already so cant get much worse.

I’d do it for fun if I had the space. Dr em up back to health and see if they were winners. But that would be the next question. Are the genetics worth it?

I am with inth3shadowz I don't see any hope to make it worth while but if it is something you are just playing with and have the time to experiment, someone mentioned chopping it in half and reveg. That is something I would fuck with just to see.

I have a buddy that does this and he always ends up with airy crap buds. By the time these plants recover, I could have a brand new plant from seed just as big and no deficiencies. At some point common sense has to take over.
