They look pretty decent IMO but you see the difference & know its not right. Lil pale.
How many runs under led have you had? I ask because it does take some dialing in after using T-5, HPS/MH.
I've had them go very pale using my regular feed that always worked. This lead me to try others, blame everything & everyone as diferent forms of defficencies kept repeating themselves for 2 yrs on certain stains under my primarily white leds. Pure, plain white around 3k was the hardest for me.
Its just recently I've learned to get a pale plant back to dark green under my leds. And better yet, avoid a pale or defficencient plant altogether.
Magnesium bra. Not Cal/Mag but plain ole Epsom salt dissolved in hot water.
Tiny bit more Cal-mag (1-2ml more/gal)
Occasionally a N Tea but not sure if you lije that in Hempies? I use BatGuano Comp. Greenlable (good in hydro).
Also helps big time to not just dim the lights but back them up. Especially till you get the green back. For some reason a close, dimmed light is not the same as far away for healing purposes.
When everything you run does fine & always did fine until switching to led it is called "LedDefficiency" .
Not the end of the world & ultimately Growers error after learning about how to start remedy.
Sure there's a whole lot more to it & speculation our the Ass but this is what worked for me & many others.
VDP now comes into play & should not be ignored. Along with leaf temps that are now approx. -2• ambient after fans when they used to be +5-7• higher with hps.
After dialed in, there's no going back.
New nutes are being made & altered for LEDs daily so it will even get easier.
You can literally hit double the light output per watt as SE/HPS now.
So it's is easy to overnight the plant using anywhere close to the hps/T-5 wattage you may be used to.

ever since i switched to led, 1 gram a gallon keeps the problems away with my normal feed

1 tbsp or tspn?
1 tspn or 5ml gets one up to around 400+ ppm ya know?
I use 3ml, with every 2 feeds then skip one if i need to, otherwise everyother.
But for quick cure i use 5ml/gall by itself or with a N heavy tea to replace a water feed.
I also use up to 5ml/gall to foliar. That reminds me! Peace! Time to wet my baby girls!

How do you use Epsom salt as a foliar spray?
When diluted with water, Epsom salt is easily taken up by plants, especially when applied as a foliar spray. Most plants can be misted with a solution of 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of Epsom salt per gallon of water once a month. For more frequent watering, every other week, cut this back to 1 tablespoon (15 mL).
