Calling all (any) Experts! Is there something wrong with this plant?

These plants will be two weeks old on Friday. All of them are very green but I have a few (about 3 of 15) that have leaves that are drooping down. The others about 12 of the 15 the leaves are going straight out and are looking good. I should mention that yesterday I watered all of my plants a little bit more than I had previously. Here's a picture too...004.jpg
 
overwatering is really to do in this critical stage so it looks like thats the problem dont water like for the next four days.
 
I had been watering every other day before yesterday and it just felt really dry all the way down so I thought I would give them some more. But today the soil is a little more moist than it would typically be on a non-watering day. I assumed that meant I had given them a proper amount of water?
 
So a few more are drooping now in the same manner...are my plants dying? They are in a dark mode too. I am doing 18/6 cycle and the 6 hours of dark starts at 9 a.m. each day so I figured it best to continue with that...

Anybody? Is there something I should do? Or is the "something" I do actually nothing. Thanks in advance!

Seems to me they should be a lot bigger at 2 weeks, what sort of lights are you using? The picture you posted looks like you've been over watering to me. When I do my watering I always poke my finger into the dirt about an inch. If I feel any moisture at all I don't water, I wait until the next day and check it again.
 
pick the cup up when it's dry, and then after watering when the weight feels like the dry weight, it's time to water, but you also need drainage in those cups
 
I had been watering every other day since I planted them after germinating them for 2 days. Yesterday I just gave each plant a little more water than I had been. I gave them each about 25ml. Should I continue my dark cycle today? They have already been in the dark for about an hour.

well 25ml is not too much for a waterloggin situation so i suspect the grow room temperatures may be too cold???
 
That could be it! We had a cold front come through and my house takes on the temp of the outside pretty well because its an old house. I have my grow set up in my closet and the temp in the house probably was down to 60 or so before I turned the heat on.
 
Yes keep the same light cycle through the plants life, so dont
change the time the lights go on only when they go off wich it changes
when to start the flowering stage. The cold weather could kill your plants
so just put some heater on them, but not to much heat cuz you can kill it too.well
when its to cold for you then that means your plants are gonna be cold too just a tip there.
Good luck and keep us posted.

Good point there!It's about 68 degrees in my house now would you recommend I turn my heat up some? I have no space heater, though I could light a candle in there.
