Not sure of the strain. Supposed to be Skywalker OG and not sure if autoflower or not. But they've been drooping and curling for a week or so now. Curling only around night time tho but the curling and clawing all the time. Haven't added any nutes yet. Just using a mix of FFHF and FFOF with about 15% perlite and 10% compost. The compost I have is really good shit so maybe that's what's doing it. I just think it's nitrogen burn but no type of discoloration at all. Besides one side of the bottom leaves with a couple brown spots. Just trying to figure out the problem and what I should do. My 2nd plant is pretty much find. Just a little bit of curling of the leaves. I did have an oscillating fan on high which I feel like is also maybe part of the problem too. I was overwatering a bit but I letting it dry out for a week or so then I'm gonna go light with the watering again.
Just wanting some opinions with what's going on with my 2 ladies ladies!

It looks fine, if maybe a little light colored. I wouldn't trip on a couple tiny spots, and a wee bit of leaf-droop isn't a huge deal IMO.
6 days?? Probably just thirsty.

Well I was gonna water today but I had been overwatering and medium is actually still pretty wet. Temp is 70 and humidity is at 42% so I didn't think it was an overwatering problem but maybe that just is my problem. I was watering every other day but it just seemed to make it worse

They look they've been over-watered, but not bad. Maybe a tad hungry too? This doesn't look like N toxicity to me, but rather soggy roots that are preventing proper nutrient uptake.
Let these suckers dry out. Those pots should weigh nothing when you lift them before your next watering.
A fan blowing directly on the plants will help dry things out faster too.
Sometimes the center of the pot retains too much moisture making it difficult to dry out. If that's the case, pull the plant out of the container, and knock off as much wet soil as you can, then replant it, and go sparingly on the water until it rebounds.
I would also give them 1/2 strength nutes next time you do water. Something like liquid fish hydrosylate (I use Neptunes Harvest, but there's tons of other brands of this too). Adding some 1/2 strength CalMag won't hurt either.
When watered and fed properly, here's what plants roughly that age should look like:

the best way to get good advice is a good explanation of the setup and how you are running this grow
Alot of the time going back and double checking the basics will help solve an issue very quickly
Pictures are worth a thousand words
I'd transplant into a nice big pot, focus on watering correctly, and be sure the plant isn't sucking the run off water up
aim for 10-20% runoff , and when you water do it slowly with a nice rainbreaker type watering can. if the plants are dry before transplant water them nicely and wait an hour or so before uprooting
once transplant shock is over maybe consider topping or LSTing it down to promote a bushier plant and flip to flower depending how much space you're trying to fill
If you get more information it would be easier to help you dial things in
Here's a list of things I'd share:
Strain: Skywalker OG(auto)
Size pot :
Size room:
Amount of plants: 2
Medium: 40%ffhf 35%ffof 10%compost 15% perlite
Ventilation setup (exhaust fan size and cfm... be sure fan is on 24/7 the plants need to breathe all the time)
Water source and approximate amount given per day
Light source (model, wattage, proximity, and on/off cycle)
Humidity high and low
Temp high and low
focusing on these factors will improve your ability to make it to the finish line and also allow you to remember what exactly you did on each run to make it successful

Doing that to a plant that size is asking for real trouble. Maybe if it was more developed but that things tiny.
Thanks for the info guys. I repotted the bigger one. Smaller one is doing alot better since I let it dry out. I slightly watered him before repotting and he was soaked somehow. After 6 days and I only used maybe a half gallon 6 days ago? I got good medium with added perlite. Humidity stays around 40-50 and temp around 70-72. Her roots looked great though. Pearly white. I lost barely any roots on the transplant. Waited about 30 mins and watered maybe a half gallon? Just got a few drops of run off. I use distilled cause the tap water where I live is horrible. I womt even give it to my dog. But I haven't started with any nutes yet considering I just put them in a mix of FFOF and FFOF with some compost but I think the compost was just too hot for their size. I just didn't add compost this time and only maybe 10% perlite and just need to get my watering technique down.
