Update (May 4th)
The three remaining plants seem to be growing. Roots look healthy, and the leaves are developing... somewhat (more on this in a sec). No sex showing yet, but I'm hoping for three females.
All of the cotyledons have begun to yellow (which is normal). The bottom leaves on 1 have also begun to yellow from the tips inwards. The second set of leaves on plant 4 have browned at the tips slightly.
I am very concerned about the browning on the tips of the leaves of 4 and the yellowing on 1. If anyone has any idea of what could be causing this, let me know. This is reminiscent of the browning on the tips of 1 that occurred before I first added the nutrient mixture in full, so perhaps I have just not refilled the reservoir often enough (last time I refilled it was 4/25).
A close up of the worst of the browning:
General pics of the plants:
Help appreciated!

Changed reservoir water from 10 cups water and 40 mL nutes to 10 cups water and 25 mL nutes. Plant 2 is exhibiting an odd phototrophic behavior: most of its leaves are trying to point straight up in the air towards the light. The browning on plant 4 has continued moderately.
It seems like the browning on the tips of the leaves is most likely nute burn, which is why I changed the nutrient solution proportions. Hopefully this will return plant 2 to health.
Group shot- you can see plant 2's weird leaf behavior.
Plants 2,1, and then 4.
Current nute burn on 4.
