So many problems. Very little progress.

Plants are about 1 month old and 4 months old both in my opinion look terrible and this is very discouraging. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong I use a 600w grow light in a 2x2 tent with 2 fans and the temp stays around 70. Fox farm ocean soil fed 1 time. Soaking the pot every 2-3 days. Water is pretty alkaline based on what I am able to measure. I don't use an electronic ph meter because of the calibration issues and I've had a hard time finding calibrating solution.

600w true or manufacturer's bs claims?
Led needs temps of high 70s to low 80's for peak performance.
Humidity is good.
Extraction is the exchange of stale air for fresh.

No extraction fan it lowers my temp too much and it's vivosun brand light
You need exchange, and you need to get the temps up as stated earlier.
I keep my differential between lights on/ off very tight..sometimes stays the same.
Plants will thrive.

I haven't found a way to keep my temps closer than 8-10 degrees when the lights change how high should the temps be

That soil has to be depleted of nutrients by now and I totally agree an oil filled heater is safer and doesn't blow hot air on the plants :weed:
 
Ocean forest says it's good for 3 months should I already be feeding it? Also it's autoflower, I just really don't know what I'm doing and am draining money fast

It needs to be warmer to take off. Can you build a simple box around your tent with foam insulation. 5 sheets would get you a 4x4x8 space with a top and bottom.
You could also use a co2 bag or try the yeast and sugar water thing if air exchange was a big problem.
