I am having trouble telling exactly what my plants need of me currently and also worried due to how they are looking currently; I am definitely 110% a first timer grower so any and all advice would be so appreciated !

my apologies! So all my babies are auto flower, growing medium will be pictured below :) , my water routine isn’t as much as routine as I just have given them straight water up until last night was there first feeding of big bloom, grow big with a microbrew, I’m Absolutely sure I did something wrong there. I’m really not sure what I need to do from here honestly! :( or going forward for that matter it seems.

seedlings do not need any nutrients until the two small round cotyledon leaves start to yellow and die off naturally, that’s a sign that the nutrients that came inside the seed to start life have been used up and than it’s time for very light feedings..
really just start over..

Most has been covered above. Seedlings were stretching for light too. Ph'd water in good organic soil is usually good for a couple weeks of initial growth before light feeding.

thank you for the helpful info! So by start over do you mean a flush or should I just say goodbye to these guys altogether?

As for the older plants (better pictures below what would you suggest or does your advice also apply to these as well? Again thanks so much for your help!

Stop watering, poke holes in the cups to help dry the soil out. Repot the big one if you can but mainly stop watering until the cups are light, real light in your hand. If you have a scale, a solo cup of fresh bag soil weighs around 200g full, guessing yours are over 300. Everybody starts this way. Here’s your root structure at seven days.

here are the smaller seedlings I was talking about earlier should I say goodbye? Or just stop all feedings and give straight water until they look like my bigger plants?

btw successfully repot the older plants from earlier had two others same size but they looked normal but I made sure to repot them to :)! Thanks so much!

I agree, the start is very important in setting up a strong finish. Not worth the time to save so little.

If you have seeds, start over with a half cup of soil. If they stretch just add more soil for support. Otherwise the seedlings are still alive and probably survive if you wait for the soil to dry 4-5 days before watering again. Wet soil draws bugs, you want the top dry. And nothing but water til at least a set of five finger leaves.

Wow I’ve gotten some really awesome info today , We can officially say RIP to the two smaller plants. Thank you all for helping me thru this it means so much!
In good news, they were apart of a controlled group so we still have about 15 seedlings left whom all look absolutely wonderful EXCEPT they are definitely stretched out like the two that have since passed to the great green beyond. Do you all think I should repot the remaining out stretched seedlings ?

next transplant you can plant deeper and roots will grow from the stem which is a good thing.
stretching can be from the light to far, ambient air temp above 80 or the soil/root zone temp is too warm.

Get a little breeze on them with a small fan
Itll strenghten the stems and shorten up your node spacing
And dry out the soil .
