So I’m growing for the first time and my plants were doing really well at first but now they’re growing really slow. A few weeks ago some of the leaves started to canoe and tad dry on the sides. Now the new top leaves that are growing are yellow. Idk if that’s because those leaves just started to sprout and have to give it time or? Growing in some regular organic soil with 2 led lights. Andy advice what’s wrong or am I over thinking it. It’s about 72-75 degrees

Tocoing is normally caused by over lighting. Yellowing is normally a lack of N. It could be other things but I would start there

If your like me. I ask 2 led lights? as in light bulbs?.
That is where I am, slow growing and roots looked bad under 1 small bulb style. I have a 2x4 tent, exhaust, with viparspectra 1500 pro but its not set up yet. also my first grow. (I am running 2-24 carat autos)

what do you mean by oversight. And I was thinking to get some nutrients. Is there anything at local stores I can get or have to order online?

hope it goes good for you and yeah just 2 100w regular led lights. I tried using a fan too but seems like they got upset so I stopped

haha yeah I’ve tried raising and lowering to see if it would change but nothing did. Plus it’s not crazy lighting that I have just some regular led light bulbs. And I just tried adding a full spec red blue grow light to see if that would help

LED= light emitting diods. You don't need to say "LED lights" and there are no bulbs. Your pics don't look like much tacoing is really going on.
And before you just drop trawl and piss in your pot read up on some of @Budzbuddha 's instructions

about a month maybe a little longer. And I grabbed some organic soil from a store I forget what brand but I can find out. Usually every 3 days. I don’t pour a lot in since I don’t want to over water it. Just get the top a little moist.

Your lights are underpowered. That's why the plant is yellow on top. You say regular led bulbs, so are we talking 10 watt household type bulbs?

here is your issue. When your growing in organic you need to keep the soil moist and never let it dry out completely. You have a microbe culture that eats the soil and digest it into nutrients avaliable for uptake. When the soil drys out your microbes die and stop eating the organic matter

I could have sworn the box said 100 watt but I just looked at light bulb and it says 14w 2700k. Thinks it’s just not getting enough light

Yeah that's under powered

I never let it dry out but I don’t completely soak it were it’s too much water
