Here are the pics. I have the plant on a 18/6 light cycle. It is an autoflowering strain and the room is kept at a warm temp of about 23 Celsius.

How are you watering them? I have some that size and i just mist the top of them with a spray bottle 3-4 times per day or you could spray/pour til water runs off through drainage holes once every other day.

that soil doesnt llook te best, ignore what stunk one said.

your either under/over watering, not enough light or that soil is hurting the plant i reckon,
nothing you can do about the soil, but let it properly dry out, stick a finger right down into the pot and see if its wet through out before watering, if the soil isnt drying fast enough in the middle you can mist 3-4 times a day with plain water

and just in case, a very easy way to see what to water is by picking up the container. pick it up after u feed so u can see the "full" weight, and then everyday lift it up. when it feels very light, feed again ;)

yeo this is my first step when i check if my girsl need water, if the buckets light, they get the finger test, pass both, they get fed

id have very similiar seedlings, and ive lost them, and they have recovered, so just dont think your plants are the most sensitive things in the world.

let em dry out, water em, simples.

also what lights you using?

3 very bright spot lights. im not to worried about the light i think it has plenty. im think it is the soil or the fact that I have over watered it.
