Hey man
It all looks very "wet" to me.
Over watered plants wrinkle, and sagg. Leaves swell, get abnormally thick, and round at the tips. Leaves get dark spots, at the tips, and between the veins.
What is your humidity?
It looks too high as well. Looks a little "mildewy". Unless its just the camera.
Check for bugs.
The fan leaf, on the lighter coloured plant in the second pic looks sus. There's a leaf with white spots, and a leaf with a hole.
Medium?
Temperature?
Humidity?
Need info.

look like his ph might be off a bit. the white marks look more like ph damage than insect damage to me.

Humidity is 60 temp is77 growing medium is dirt from a farm and just organic. I do believe the start of these I flushed the pots then put seedlings in and they were overwatered. They are only 2 weeks old or so Maybe because I cut a hole in the floor and air is coming from the basement would that cause any issues too?Hey man

depends on how moist the air from the basement is. and if there are any musty odors. musty smell from a basement would concern me, mold, mildew, and fungi are not your friends, except in very, very limited cases, which i do not think apply here

Here is another plant in there . So what do u think I should do I closed the hole now also there are 3 desperate pots and it is happening to them all I do know when I was flushing them before I planted the run off ph was low but this stupid soil tester thing is reading it as like 8 in soil. Would the plants do that from the ph being messed up? What are the next steps I should takr?

Id personally try and dry it all out a little. It does look wet to me tbh.
Try to shoot for around 50% humidity.
Temperature is pretty good.
Light cycle?
How are you replenishing air in your grow space?
Do you have air extraction as well?

It seems like the soil is staying pretty wet also I made holes in the bottom of the pot I don't get it I got fans on the soil too

Yes I have air being removed and have two fans in it and two out of it what is the best way to dry the soil? It seems like the bottom soil never drys out I did not water for a week and it was still a little moist I'm getting frustrated because I feel like I can't figure this out and my first grow went so smooth
Have you got something the pots can sit on, that'll allow airflow underneath?
Otherwise when you pot. Add extra aeration and drainage. Like perlite, pumice, sand, river stone etc etc.
May be a lot of clay or organic material, if your soil came from the farm?
Causing it to take a long time to dry.
What type of farm soil is it?
Is it compost?
Whats its texture like?
Spongy or wet/sticky, heavy?

I check the ph the water temp no. So how can I check the run off to get a ph reading if it's a possibility that they are sitting it wet soil as it is won't that be counterproductive

It seems heavy a little that may be a issue . Like say u don't add other dirt to it it will be like thick mud

Never water your plant with cold or hot water ,it cause potential stress in plant.
My advice between 60/70
68 is doing great

Did you mix perlite or any light rocks into your soil ?
Have you try any rooting development?

Yes I have a root enhancer also I did use perlite. I believe it may be my ph the soil reader is reading it close to 8. How can I fix this I have ph up and down
Sounds to me like drainage is your issue. Causing your soil to take a long time to dry.
Id work on keeping your grow space dry. Water them less often.
Next time you use this soil. Add some texture to it. Add some brown matter. Like peat or coir, for some spongyness (i like 50% peat to coir). Add some aeration and drainage. Id recommend perlite for heavy soil. Maybe a little sand too.

I'm going to store now to get better potting soil then I can add more perlite and I'm going to transplant them I did not want to because they are auto flowers but I believe I have too
