They were in a small 2x2 tent before. They were all smashed together with not enough room to grow. They’re now in a 4x8 tent only using half with one light.
I’m no expert specially on indoor grows but… pots look small for the size of your plants. most of these guys use 3 gal pots. Only watering every 3 or 4 days, maybe a little on the dry side of things.

1 gallon pots really aren’t big enough for that size plant. Your plants might be becoming root bound.
It might make sense to re-pot into 5 gallon pots if possible.
General guidelines for pot sizes indoors is 3 gallon for autoflower strains and 5 gallon for photo period strains.

I believe the yellowing is from plants being root bound and some roots are not getting nutrition.
Here is a tutorial on what you should do. I use ProMix. You can use whatever you want. Pot size and transplanting technique is what I am showing you. Best to gwt this done. Minimum 3 gallon pots. Maximum 5 gallon pots.
One final note: If you decide to keep your plants in 1 gallon; You can finish them and have quality “Meds” but, you will suffer loss of yield and constantly have some environmental issues. In small pots the plants will finish quicker.
Make sure to feed them with full strength nutrients.
