Can’t tell a thing under that grow light, other than it looks a little droopy, and maybe overwatered.

Sorry I’m awful at pictures and I just watered probably an hr before so they’re dropping a bit

Get them of the floor and feed to 20% runoff. It looks like you let them sit in or have very little to no runoff? Roots follow the flow of water and need good aeration. You're not letting them breath properly sitting straight on the floor.
Remove the old leaves and plants from the grow room immediately! It's a recipe for pests to flourish.

What strain?

Wow I didn’t know about pulling them off the ground and I do have very little run off but couldn’t figure it out thanks! I’ll clean my tent up rn.

They were pollinated by a neighbor and we had blue dream and girl scout that year so it’s a cross between one of two and I think Girl Scout but idk yet.

So each watering I need 20 percent to come out as run off? Or am I misunderstanding

Correct, 20% of total water volume at feeding/watering.

I lowered it after I noticed but it was only a week ago so I was too late. The nodes are much closer together now so I think I have it?

I usually shoot for 10% runoff, but there’s nothing wrong about 20%, especially if your using synthetic nutes. What media?

Blackgold organic soil +peat moss. Using FF big bloom

I really advice you to look for something other than Foxfarm. While there are people using it with success, there's even more that haven't had a good result at all on here. It's not very complete as a plant food and works better for tomatoes than Cannabis.
If you want something easy to use Dyna Gro Foliage Pro is probably the easiest nutrient to use from start to finish in containers. One part complete nutrient, it's a little low on Mg under Led's but that's easily fixable with low dose Epsom salt. GH 3 part is solid and a good start for someone starting out to. Then you can fiddle a little bit more with the ratios.

Of the three major FF nutes, big bloom is at least organic, has humic and fulvic acids, but is basically devoid of NPK. Since your growing in an organic soil, I’d get organic amendments.

I’ll definitely check that out for my next grow. I’ve already bought FFOF for it though

The easiest route for success is a complete plant food in readily available form. Organic is not cleaner or better especially if you're growing indoors and the plant doesn't know the difference.
I bet you if I were to grow a plant with Foliage Pro from start to finish in containers with kelp and humic you wouldn't taste any difference from an organic grown bud.
I've been growing as long as I can remember and I cannot smell or see any difference other than synthetics being overall superior in quantity indoors.
