I’m 7 weeks into flowering and the past week I’ve really tapered off the nutrients. I also only did half dosage every other watering for that matter, but my Leaves have burnt ends and are clawing a bit. I gave it a good flush last night. I’m not sure if this is natural or a problem. Here’s the photos
Overwaterin? Nitrogen toxicity?

You know what it looks like?

It looks like @Wizzlebiz needs to tell you because I just can't anymore.

Nope. I clocked out 15 minutes ago.

It looks like a Cal/Mg issue. Possibly a lockout if you're feeding it properly.
Time to get informative.

Anything else?
I’ve been feeding it a half dose of gh trio every other feeding
The medium is happy frog potting soil- it’s been in the same soil since veg
Water PH is around 6.4 to 6.7
I water every other day until runoff
It’s gelato
It was a clone I was gifted
There under 500 watt led
The RH is 43 and it’s in a tent

Happy Frog doesn't have what a flowering plant needs. It's a little late to transplant so you'll have to adapt what you have.
Since your leaves are getting toasty toes, maybe half strength is a little much. 7 weeks into flower severely limits your options but you clearly have an issue.
6.7 is high for soil, you want a pH range between 6.2 and 6.5 for optimal nutrient uptake.
The FF Trio...which trio? Cha-Ching, Beastie Blooms and open sesame? Grow big, tiger bloom and big bloom? The cultivation nation trio?

How long did you veg for? How long have they been in those pots?

It sounds like you have a lockout.
Flush with 3x the volume of the container, use pH balanced water and aim for a pH of 6.2.
Water immediately with a 30% nutrient strength solution and make sure you include the Calmag iron....I hate that added iron.....
For future reference, get ahold of some Bush Doctor sledgehammer, use it once a month.
The damage will never go away but you might be able to get to the finish line with minimal extra damage.
Runoff pH doesn't mean shit. Make sure anything you put into the soil is pH'd between 6.2 and 6.5. No more, no less.
A dollop of molasses wouldn't hurt either.

Watering to runoff every other day and feeding frequently. Stop both. Watering by schedule and feeding by schedule instead of by need is sure to give you problems.

43 rh is very low if you have 80f temps (You should be near that ambient temp for leds). If you have low temps, below 70f you may also see issues of lock outs that can start to mimic deficiency, along with over watering. As far as I recall patchy golden spots is most commonly a sign of calcium deficiency while burnt leaf tips can be a sing of developing toxicity or high ph swings.
I would suggest you try to get your temp/humidity stable and in range to eliminate a lot of potential false flags. A sudden 10% humidity drop at the wrong time can quickly equate to N or any other toxicity for that matter.
