Do you have a PH meter or tds meter?
There are photo seeds? Or autos?

@Andy77 Are you adding calmag ? looks like this could be magnesium deficiency.

@Andy77 Yeah I’m thinking magnesium. You can get yourself a bottle of calmag and add to every watering.
Quick fix
Epsom salt mixed with water (1tsp per litre)
Add to spray bottle, spray leaves at lights out, don’t spray when lights are on your leaves will burn.
You can also add Epsom salt when watering at 1tbsp per gallon

66 tds
Can you explain that?
What’s the tds of your tap water and what’s the tds of the run off when you water.
It could be a deficiency but your plants are so small i don’t know why that would happen unless the soils very weak or the PH is off.
Do a soil slurry sample test both tds and ph wise.
(google to learn how)

I’ve been using half distilled and half tap water and my tds meter says 67 ppm I haven’t checked my run off water as there’s really never any water from run off ?

Your PH for soil need to be 6.3-6.8 work towards 6.5
Your soils empty.
Pot up in new rich soil or get nutrients.
For example my nutrient feeds 650-1100 ppm but mines includes cal mag.
So follow the nutrient you buy

Local hydro store =p
Get something budget friendly it all works.
ASAP!
For now flush with 6.5 ph water from your tap after its sat out for 24hr
Dont use distilled.
That drained your soil of nutrients

General hydroponics is cost effective and good results. You have PH up & down? If not get some
When you get more serious you can look into Jack’s 321
