No, be careful with nutes when they this young. If you are transplanting this weekend. Just give them PHed water, (very important) for about a week then start giving them nutes at half strength off what is recommended. This is the period in your grow when you can screw up very easily. Once you get them established in their permanent pot you are pretty much good to go. Good luck my friend.

That's a magnesium deficiency I recommend calmag that has calcium magnesium iron and nitrogen (2-0-0)

Its only getting yellow in between the veins. That's how you know its magnesium

I have had issues with PH meters. I've had trouble with it reading true. Always having to keep the probe wet. Now I use litmus paper. Just dip it in the water and compare color. You don't have to be exact, just between 6-7. K I S S

That looks like a deficiency but I don't think it's nitrogen (which makes lower leaves turn pale yellow all over). The pH being too high or too low near the roots in the number one reason growers see nutrient deficiencies, so that's always the first question everyone asks when they see a deficiency 
If in soil you want to pH to be between 6-7, and in coco coir you want to keep the pH between 5.5-6.5.
Here's how to test the pH
What type of nutrients do you have and what type of water are you using? In coco you need to start using nutrients right away (since there aren't any nutrients in coco coir) but in soil many growers wait until the plant is a few weeks old so it has a chance to use up some of the nutrients in the soil They also look a little big for their pots, maybe time for transplant?
Overall your plants look great!

I have tested the runoff water now using distilled and it is in perfect range. I'm going to the indoor hydro store tomorrow to get some more soil so I can repot them into a larger smart pot. it is nice to hear that they look good. I was never a great gardener. I killed my eucalyptus after 2 weeks. lol. they didn't have a chance. thank you all again though.

I'm really thinking rootbound. Anyone notice the size of the pot she's in?

Yes I saw you are potting up, good timing. Post a pic of the root ball if you have time. I would be very interested to see it. I attached the link to Nebulas transplant guide.
