Sorry I posted on the wrong thread so here it is again sorry for the repost admins.

Hey guys and gals. First timer here so any advice and jokes are appreciated. I've done a bunch of research but it's never enough. I'll tell you guys about my set up. It's pretty basic
4x4 tent
Inline fan/charcoal filter
spider farmer sf4000
fan on top point down to cool off drivers
oscillating fan down low. Might be too much.

First mistake I made is going with soil.
Roots organic.
1 3 gallon smart pot
2 5 gallons d
1 random 5 or so gallon

Next nutrients.
Guy at grow store sold me fox farm grow, micro and bloom which I was told later is for coco mostly

Next mistake 2 diff strains flowering at diff times

Strains Are autoflowers
2 blue sunset set sherbert
2 whiskey zulu

Now I've made it 43 days pretty good. Tent got hot to 91 while I was gone for a few hours at least. Now usually sat around 75-80 lights on 62-67 off.
The whiskey zul started flowering at 2 weeks after sprout. Sherbert is still in veg.
I'm having issues with both Now. One sherbert is perfect the other is stunted bad. Leaves pointed down which is nitrogen toxicity a dark green. And some yellowing.
The zulus were doing pretty damn good but now I have praying leaves and yellowing at the bottom.

I found about I shouldn't be using the notes after I saw a tad of nute burn and talked to a buddy. Went with ph water about 6.2-6.4 for about week now but today I saw the yellowing so I went back with the nutes but less potent the what I was doing. I thought I had nute lock and prob did for the two sherberts. What am I doing wrong and how can I prevent it later I guess. Ppm for the sherbert is 450-550 and the zulus are 700-800 I'll add pics in a sec i have to switch phones this camera is cracked. Thank you if you've bared with me this long to the end I really appreciate it

Hey is that exhaust fan on the top or bottom of the tent?
I know its a huge pain in the ass, but if you could set it up so its at the top of your tent with the passive intake coming in thru the bottem it would really help with heat.

It was wise to post when you did, no real damage has been done yet.

The plants dont look too bad, but someone more experienced can help you with the other issues. Welcome to RIU

Plants look pretty good …. Piece of advice.…. Steer clear of “ guy at grow store advice “ .
Lurk the grows / growing styles that favor what you are looking for here on RIU.

Fox Farm are pretty vanilla as far as effectiveness - many other brands are better .
Jack’s / Dr Earth / Masterblend / GH / Recipe 420 dry / etc.

Only thing I would ADD would be another fan - for the plants . A simple static or oscillation fan will move air thru plant ( strengthen/ air exchange )
which will aid in its health / reduce pathogens-pests / and aid transpiration.

Otherwise looking good.
