I'm really enjoying my first grow experience and have learned so much along the way. Any help anyone can shoot me to help me learn and understand the amazing plants and in particular what mine are doing right now would be awesome. Thanks
So, ive got a 4x2 tent with 3 plants. 1 gigabud and superskunk from g13 and 1 bag seed. I popped them about 6 weeks ago. Im in happy frog soil and have had a very light touch with nutes until about a week ago when I gave them general hydroponics main 3 at 75% recommend dose and also calmag + liquid karma in a later water. I have a exhaust fan going most of the time. 2 x 100w led quantum style boards at 100% @16 inches. Ive struggled to keep the humidity in line with optimal vpd because with fan on its about 55% and with off its 80%. So I'm running a humidifier with it on most of the time now. Ok, I think that covers it.
So, I'm seeing clawing and dark dull almost powdery leaves. Im not sure if its a bit of wind burn because the clip fan is blowing right on them, im not sure if they are fine and im overthinking it. Cal deficiency? Maybe nitrogen toxicity? Any help would be appreciated, thanks

"Cal deficiency? Maybe nitrogen toxicity?"

Yes, that's what I see. Add Epsom salt to your water along with the calmag...1 teaspoon to 2 gallons of water, every time you water.

No more nutes for a while, til gthey get into flower and the color lightens up some.

Ventilation is crucial or you'll get diseases, like powdery mildew....your worst nightmare!!

Think about an IPM, Regalia and Venerate are what I use, and for a few dollars a week it will protect you from most common problems...Lots of info on both on this site.

They look good all in all though...very nice for a 1st grow!!

Next time start nutes at 25%. You’re going to discover it’s easier to address an emerging deficiency than dealing with an overdose. Which is what happened here.
