I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. But I do believe the lighter color growth is just where it's starting to flower. I mean, all my autos did that at the bud sites, but not to that degree. Both those are some pretty dark green leaves too, so it may be a little hard to judge in comparison.
Also, I swear plants droop sometimes. I'd almost swear they sleep. Though I'd be tempted to think that plants drooping because it's time to water it. What strain is that? How old is it?

Yellowing on mainly bottom leaves first can mean watering issues as well as nitrogen deficiency. If your watering had been good I would lean towards nitrogen but I am no expert.
I think watering is ok because it's been doing this for a little while and even after I water it.
It's supposedly Jack Herer Auto and it's from crop king seeds. It's been about 45 days since it sprouted from the soil but barely showing preflowers. I hope it's actually an auto lol
They're definitely dark green but I did have the flash on when I took that pic so maybe that's why it looks like that?

Looks all good.. few burnt tips which would suggest you do have a hot mix.. one yellow leaf at the bottom is nothing to worry about imo. Keep going with the water for a while to cool down the mix. Is it growing fast? New leaves have always started pale for me, they just don't have a tan yet.

Yeah pretty small for 45 days eh... Looks like it's just had a hard time, might have suffered some root burn in the early days.. I always see auto's look like this though they seem to never recover when stunted early on. Sorry I don't have any suggestions other than just keep pushing on and see if any of the symptoms develop further.

If I we're a betting man, (which I am) I would wager, that a quality PH probe in that soil would read below 6....
Most of my "deficiency" problems were proven to be a result of soil PH falling under the optimal zone, caused by keeping the medium too wet, leading to an imbalance in micronutrient availablility…...

1000 watt is a lot of light, but not overkill depending on tent size and number of plants
