Are you using nutrients? Not testing pH of water? You have no ventilation? Having no ventilation means it’s just sitting in stale air… Not good. ---

The pictures really are too dark to say whether is canabalizing or nute burn. Both go for oldest leaves first. Nutes? PH? ---

But what nutrients are you using? Are using a ppm/tds meters? [https://www.amazon.com/TDS-Meter-Digital-Water-Tester/dp/B07Z9D8FJJ/ref=mp\_s\_a\_1\_3?dchild=1&keywords=idealhouse+ph+and+tds+meter&qid=1619708190&sr=8-3](https://www.amazon.com/TDS-Meter-Digital-Water-Tester/dp/B07Z9D8FJJ/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?tag=ilovegrowingm-20) Are the exact ones I use. Most people think the cheaper ph meters don’t work that well because they play with them and try to test stuff like RO or DI water. Or basically any water under ~100 ppm. Since water itself can’t have a pH, they bounce around trying to get a reading. Making people think they don’t work. More expensive ones will just give you something ---

I don’t use any nutrients I thought the soil I’m using called big rootz would be good enough … what nutrients do you recommend and okay I’ll check that meter out thank you
