Well, for one thing, you've overloaded it with nitrogen... Fox Farm Ocean Forest is loaded with it (the NPK of the soil itself is 4-1-1), now you add dry amendments with 4-4-4 and you've got pretty hot soil. The yellow spots are looking like the start of a calcium deficiency - the calcium being blocked by the nitrogen overload. If this were mine, I'd transplant into a larger pot WITHOUT the amendments (it needs it anyway) and give it only pH'd water for a couple of weeks. The soil will feed the plant for those weeks and hopefully doing this will allow the plant to take up the calcium it needs. Good luck...

High sacredgeometry, For now I can tell you that you used to much nitrogen but you can't do anything about it anymore because you used dry amendments. Just give tap water with pH 6.2 till the real dark green colour starts to become a lighter green colour! For the next time start for 3 weeks inside a small 3 liter pot with only the soil. After 3 weeks you can transplant her to a 10 liter pot where you mixed the dry amendments with the soil. Happy Growing! 😋
