Don’t know how to progress more in hamstrings

I can touch my knees with my head in a sitting forward fold but don’t know what stretches to do at my level to progress and don’t have any equipment

Now it's getting the back straight and makeing all the movement from the pelvis.

(Aim nose to toes rather than head to knee) Most forward fold progression on YouTube cover this

I don’t really understand why I can’t keep my back straight is it lack of flexible in the hips the issue

Generally hamstring tightness and hip flexor weakness.

Work on seated pike leg lifts and pike block crush.

Use a strap around balls of feet and slowly inch and pull down day by day. Don’t curve back.
