New Grower Yellow spots on leaves?

[Gibs Grow]

I know I've been been asking an awful lot of questions but I would just like to be thurough being that this is my first grow. I have recently moved my light up because I am quite sure it was burning my plant. This is an auto Girl Scout cookies from fast buds. I have another smaller auto GDP which seems to be doing just fine. Anyways I was going to give my first round of nutes which is 1ml per gallon of water of root organics Buddha grow. I'm going to post the pics below of the spotting as they have become more apparent since last night. Haven't watered in a few days and I've only watered 3 times total. It's around the second week since planting. Also I can already begin to smell skunky smell coming from both my small plants. I wanted to also mention that the leaves were curling up as well and I am pretty sure this is because my my bulb was way too close.

UPDATE: The yellowing is spreading on the bottom leaves. Pics below

I still say all heat stress as long as no new growth is dis colored your God to go bro..

Do you have a small oscillating fan in your grow space?

I've seen you got some helping hands onboard, but here's a little check list i like to run through when leaves go crinckly and look weird.

Is my PH testing meter calibrated.
Am i feeding the correct PH (for you thats about 6.3 after all feed has gone in)
Is the root zone cold?

Leaves will curl up into a tube if the heat is too much - but there's other reason for curling leaves including defs caused by squiffy PH.

All of the conditions above are satisfied and the leaves still look a bit buggered, give it a few days to dry out (if the pot is heavy) and then give a good (amount of water) light feeding which goes through to 10% run off.

You could also in the meantime mix up a foliar spray of water and epsom salts and give the leaves a misting once or twice a day - (becuase they're looking a little light a N def.... which could be incorrect PH so dont just throw more N into the soil - better to get it foliar while you sort the soil out)

That's some of the steps i'd take - but don't stress too much, they can fix up good even when they look manky!

Yeah I have a small fan but only one it's pretty big like 6 inches tho.

Appreciate the response! I was wondering if my ph meter could be off but I calibrated it recently so I'm not sure that's the problem. I had my light maybe nine inches from my plants before yesterday when I moved it up.

Yeah, that's too close unless it's a CFL

I pretty much start 2 feet above the plant - waiit for it to grow within 10 inches, then keep a 10 inch distance as it grows up.
I run LED so if 10 inches is too close for your light - keep a distance that wont burn the leaves, but keep raising as the plant grows up ^_^

Could you take some photos of the pot you have and some photos inside the tent? It's very hard to diagnose by just looking at the plant. There are many factors could cause issues too. What are those drainage holes under the pot look like?

I'll have to take them when I get home from work but the drainage holes are basically approx. 5 small circular holes on the bottom.
