probably over watering them
get a microbe product and use it once a wek so you know you have microbes working for you .
Looks like it could be low on mag....light might be too close...

I upped the cal mag 2 weeks ago and the light is 25inches from the plant, could be overwatering as at the start I was feeding everyday which I shouldn’t have been.

Stop filming pics under led .
Color shift highlights shit “ unnaturally “.
Also stop flushing - especially at the point it is transitioning into flower / you technically knee capped it when it needs the extra Nutes for stretch and bud set.

I wouldn’t really call it flushing it’s just watering between feeds (I put around 1L feed and water in) I feed then leave it a day, water then leave it a day then feed. Is that ok or should I change it?

Why do that ? ... each has separate ph needs.

You could have basically run a full soil and had less of issues .
Or run full coco with methods involved for that type of medium.

it’s my first grow and I was quite stupid, I ran out of coco so topped the rest of the pot with soil without realising what it’ll do... I’ve got 2 in full coco the half and half one then a full soil one

Should I just feed everyday and see how it goes?

IDK ... you have a plant trying to pull from one type of medium that holds some Nutes / salts and another that needs it pretty much daily.
Issues are happening because ph is low for “ soil “ yet your coco base needs 5.5 to about 6.2 ..... see the problem ?
Soil like 6.5-7.0 .
I believe it’s gonna be a bit tough finding a range that will not show it suffering “ some deficiency “.

Yeh I can see the issue now, I think I’m just going to try 6.0 - 6.1 a go and feed a little more often and see how it goes. Quite stupid of me really but now I know for next time. Thanks for the help

Listen ... it’s a learning thing. It takes a few plants to be “ sacrificed “ for experience. I know you will start to see it’s not a big deal in most circumstances, it’s a god damn plant. Basically , you are growing a simple plant like a tomato plant.
Matter of fact , feeding requirements for cannabis mimic a vegetable garden. Start simple next time ......Soil , seed , water.
After a few good grows , start running all coco ( reading and lurking grows ) for an alternate medium that can grow great weed but needs things a little more precise. Either way you get experience.
There is no “ stupid “ in asking for some advice , we all are still learning in way or another.

If you water the soil pot every day then you need to let it be a dry out some.
Idk what led light you have but at 25 inches im willing to bet that, that is too close.
Use epsom salt for mag. use cal mag as a maintenance nute but epsom salt when you need mag
