Are my babies ok?

New grower here. I have 3 babies that sprouted out of the soil 2 weeks ago and were growing pretty good until I ran into some problems.
My first plant (got from friend,BP#1) looked like it was reaching for light so I lowered the light about 4 in. (About 7 inches away now) and I've been watering with tap water until I get my pH meter in. I think the pH of my tapwater might have something to do with the spot on the leaf.

My second plant (OG Bag seed) on me when I was treating it for mold, but at this point I might just cut my losses on it. The leaves look like they're dying and the cotyledons+leaves shriveled up like prunes

Help would be appreciated. I need all I can get!

(The og bag seed is the plant on the bamboo stick)

Hi JustClouds

Looks like you have a long but exciting journey of learning ahead of you.

You should not have mold problems to treat at that young stage of growth.

It could be that there is not enough air flow, or that the soil is staying too wet (not enough drainage). The leaves droop like that usually when over watered but I cant say for sure since I have no idea what you've done in the plants life so far and what kind of soil / environment it is in.

Just make sure that if you water your pots it should be moist but not wet the day or two after. If the pots stay too wet then you need to rethink what soil you are using. Don't water too often either, let it dry out a bit.

Any "treatments" without prior knowledge and experience of the product you are using can go quite badly in my experience. Especially at that young stage of growth.

But hope is not lost, just keep giving them water when they need it and see if they grow. Try not to over think it too much.

Update: im letting the soil dry out and they all seem to be recovering. The leaves that were damaged on all plants started to shrivel up but there are new leaves still coming in. Im guessing the damaged leaves are going to just fall off.
