You need to take a pic of hole plant. looks like nute burn but cant be sure till we see hole plant pic.
what kind of soil? type of nuts? how much and how often?

i will take a picture of the whole plant(s)

I am using organic soil, brewing tea using organic ingredients (bird guano, fish fertilizer, alfalfa meal, kelp meal, seaweed fertilizer...etc) I tea every other week. I am using ph balanced well water as well. I still need to purchase a PPM meter.

It looks like fungus gnats , but zooming in on your leaves there is some kind of sheen and droplet residue , are you Foliar spraying something ?

3rd and 4th photo also shows some intense purple stems , although that may be genetic depending on strain it can come by a Mag deficiency , which can be corrected with CALMAG or Espom salt ( 1 tsp per gallon of water - fully dissolved ) but looks like a couple of things going on. .

Try a runoff PH test , when it's time to water . ( no nutes , just water ) . See if PH is out of acceptable range ( lockout ) . That should provide some info .

now that you mention it i dont think the soil cooked long enough... >:\ 2-3 weeks max at the time of clone transfer... its weird cause we used one coffin for all clone transplants and some got more burned than others. btw we folier sprayed the plants with ultra wash.. thats why theres residue on their.

I grow organic and i to made that mistake before. what size pot are they in. When I did it they were in smaller pots so i just up potted them in store bought soil to complete the grow and let the other cook till next run.

Maybe a Cal / Mag issue.
Stems and branches are too red. Overwatering ? PK deficient ?
Too low light ? Looks kinda stretchy and small leafed. A PK deficiency can also cause red stems, stretchy growth and slow growth.
And the foilar spray is kind thick. Neem ? or fungicide ? Some sprays can burn leaves especially at the tips where it pools up and runs off. Even more so if it's hot.
If those pictures were taken in your grow area...do yourself a favor and put up reflective material or paint.
Could be just root bound .

looks like you are spraying silica ,you should have cooked the soil min 6 weeks and even then you should have started clones in something like happy frog until they got good rooting ,no big deal we all make mistakes you live and learn ,i have made my share of mistakes .i would quit the foilar spray

Hello, obviously you sprayed on your plant something that burns the hell out of it, as well as you burned it with too much ferts in the root zone. It's surely not deficiency. Now you need to spray your plant very well with distilled water, till all this bad stuff is washed off. Than you need to flush it properly with pH'ed water (with no nutrients). Give it a week to recover(or when one inch layer of soil is dry) . Next watering, put nutrients at 1/4 the recommended amount, and increase the nutrient concentration slowly with every watering.
Do foliar feed only if you have deficiency and your soil is too wet for watering, also make sure before spraying any nutrients, they are suitable for this purpose.
