I would welcome some opinions on these plants.
The leaves are turning light green, some have curled up tips, some brown crispy spots.
I have 3 auto in 2nd week of flower and 4 photos I just flipped two days ago.

Medium: Soil
Ph 6.1- 6.5
GO veg nutes
GO bloom for flowering autos
Water: tap, unclorinated
Feeding every other watering
Watering as needed, not to runoff.
I tried adding 1 ts Epsom salt to 1g Water and 2.5 ml fish ( not at the same time).
Temp 79
RH 45-40
Spider farmers 4000 lights 20 " distance dimmed to 78%

Could be some light bleaching, turn it down about 10% and a do a flush and give it a week or two and see how the plants react.

The ones that look worse than the others look over-watered to me. Droopy, chicken claw, etc. Too much over-watering rotted the root hairs and now they have some kind of all-around nutrient deficiency problem. Couple that with Feeding every other watering and that is most likely compounding the problem. I usually FWWWFWWWF. The only way to heal the root hairs is with microbes, such as great white or many other brands, along with only watering when the soil is close to bone dry. You want to completely saturate the soil though when it's time to water until you see runoff from the bottom, take care to not saturated the soil too fast either as it needs to absorb some moisture first when dry, then once absorbed a bit, lay in the water more.

The ones in flower don't look as bad, but looks like they were slightly over-watered with the same principals listed above. They somehow just took it better.

Just my opinion. Hope that helps.

Thank you for looking at the pics so closely. 3 plants were watered today.
The moisture meter was showing pretty dry.
I have restrained myself from watering. 7 days +. Inserted finger. Bone dry
Manufacturer reccomend weekly feeding. I feed half dose every two weeks.
Gotcha FWWWFWWW
They seemed much happier without nutes.
I should mention, I introduced the Spider Farmers light a week ago.
