I know the pics are a little blurry but its the best I can get with my crappy phone. the new set of leafs that are coming in look a little brown ish.....
I noticed that I see a little light yellow spots... could it be that the fox farm soil is to hot for these new plants?
also a nothing thing.. the digital thermometer says that the temp right above the plants is about 82-83 degrees.. but when I stick my fingers like a inch in the soil it feels cool. and the room feels a little cool? should I be word that its too hot or to cold?

Well I can't really see anything wrong, but as I've said before, FFOF can be a little hot for seedlings. I wouldn't worry about them.
The plants are going to be experiencing the heat that you measure where they're at, not the temperature of the soil, or the ambient temp of the room.

Well you're going to be transplanting up so that will extend the amount of time you have. But I just gauge it by what the plants are telling me, not really the time. Just pay attention to your plants and they'll tell you what they need.

lol well that is a lot easier if you know what to look for, with this being my first grow, its kinda hard for me to know. That way I was just kinda wondering if I should not feed for atleast 2 weeks or so. . Cause I do know fox farm soil does have nutients in it, so I just don't want to nutrient burn/kill my plants.

There's a lot of variables on that man. It depends on how much lighting they have, the amount of FAE/CO2 they have, the mount of soil they're in. It's one of those questions with no specific answer man.

Yellowing of the leaves starting from the bottom of the plant and getting progressively worse. Working it's way up.

Yup, and is the nutrient that gets used up first, in most cases, while in veg.
