I just started on Adobe stock, and all my photos were rejected for quality issues. I was hoping I could get some advice because I'd like to be able to sell my photos.

IMG_7022.JPG - not in sharp focus and the whites are overexposed.

IMG_7068.JPG - lacks sharp focus and is over saturated 

IMG_6370.JPG - some if the whites are blownout

6378: Overexposed, blown out sky and strong chromatic aberration:

6352: not in focus, chromatic aberration (but not as strong as 6378), oversaturation and bad composition. If the building is your point of interest, you need to get most of the trees out of your view. But the building, I fear, neeads a property release to be able to get published in the stock database.

7060: oversaturation, exposure issue, artefacts (colour noise!), not focussed and no detail, bad composition. In the case of a picture like this, you need to have both bulbs in the frame. 

5393: Chromatic aberration, blown out highlights, oversaturated. You also compete with millions of flower pictures, so to get accepted, the picture needs to show something exceptional. This picture is also badly composed, The bow is disturbing, the background is not exactly pleasant, the hard shadows and the blown out highlights make this a picture that has practically no chance to enter the database. You should try not to photograph in the full sunlight.

Do this all.
1. Image resolution & clear detailing
2. Upscale
3. Avoid other logos & names
4. Match correct keyword tags
5. Edit color, contrast,etc.. (medium)
6. Do correct tick mark while uploading.

Your answer is completly nonsense. Even if some of your points are correct, they are not helpful for the OP.
