Some kind of deficiency or toxicity?

Hello everyone
I'm just over 3 weeks into my indoor grow and I feel like I'm running into some potential deficiencies.
I have 9 plants
3 strains (bubblehan, brood x by crickets and cicada and triangle kush x chem d from csi humboldt).
The brood x seem to be the most affected. The bubbleghans seems to be fairly unaffected .
They were all transplanted just over a week ago from solo cups into 3 gallon bags in fox farms ocean forest soil.
Im using tap water that has been PH'd to 6.2 - 6.5 ish
I gave them some cal mag when I transplanted them.
Switched them from 250 metal halide to mars hydro tsw2000 led light on 50 percent 5 days ago and upped to 60 percent yesterday.
Leaves are thin, lime green and slightly curled upwards on all the plants but the bubbleghan.
Growth of the leaves on the brood x have slowed right down but the stems are stretching.
The brood x older leaves are super dark green and some are curled down wards.

I'm thinking the fox farms ocean forest my have been a bit hot for such young plants but I'm no expert by any means.
Maybe soil ph is off?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

If anything a deficiency. Fox Farms Products Suck especially their soils.

I would just keep watering them and let em rip. Don't go trying to fix anything yet they aren't that bad it looks like nitrogen deficiency. You may be under watering your pots look very dry. Feel for weight to know if they can take water or not.. Get a feel for it, literally and then use that to water them adequately but without super soaking them like they're in coco or rockwool.

In soil you ideally wanna figure out how much water it takes to soak the pot without water draining out the bottom more than a few drops.
 
Honestly your plants look great anyhow, if anything just a little pale colored. Could be lighting, there are no major problems with those plants at all that I can see. Been in dozens of grows over the years and saw a lot worse from "great" growers.

Look into M3 Mix Michigan Made Mix and look at their ingredients then look into super soil. You can build your own super super easy and its water only. Do not buy their soil for their price on their website its insanely outrageous like 45 dollars a bag or something. It's genuinely a water only soil and to boost bud size you will definitely need to feed the plants after a couple weeks in bloom unless you're growing in large pots.
 
Thanks for the advice brother.
Funny thing is I usually make my own soil and have good results but the lady at the hydro store sold me on trying this.
I feel like an ass for not doing a bit more research on the ffof as it seems wildly incinsistent from bag to bag.
Oh well will ride this out and see what becomes of it all.
As for the watering I can't tell if I'm over or under doing it.
Because they were only 2 weeks old when I transplanted them I haven't been watering to the point where there is any runoff yet I didn't want to soak the soil to much.
Whenever I water they seem to not like it though and are droopy until the next day when the lights go on so I figured I was over watering if anything but I'm still pretty new to indoor growing and am far from being dialed in what I'm doing.
 
ph and ec must always be good for good plants. according to meters that are calibrated properly

doesnt matter ph or ec that you water with, matters ph and ec of the growing medium the roots are in, watch for build up of nutes in medium if not watering with much run off
