Your photos do not allow for a precise diagnosis. But I think your lamp is too close to your plants during the growth period. You should put it higher. What type of substrate do you use?

Ok... this is strange!
This is not good. I have a baby plant which is having real trouble growing. It has just cothyledons out in 15 days! This is not normal. Have you ever experienced something similar?

3 days in, only cotydelons with no sign of the first true leaves. Have you seen this and has it recovered?
This plant was stunted at the start after he couldn't get his hat off, but now looks pretty healthy however it's been 3 days of just cotydelons and absolutely no sign of the first true leaves. Have you had this before and did it recover to eventually grow true leaves?

Growing problem
My last 6 plants (different strain and ferti) grow up slowly and with less foliage. Even in pre flower the plants stretch while I do LST, then at the 2nd flowering week they drastically stop stretching, is it normal? Every strain is having the same result approx 15g for plant

Very slow seedling growth into Week 2, grew with only one healthy cotyledon...
The #2(Pic 2) Pheno of my Purple Haze is a bit stunted/very slow growth into Week 2 - 3 compared to #1(Pic 1) Pheno. Is this anything to be worried about? I did germinate a #3 Pheno seed + 1x Jack as a backup in case this one doesn't make it, is there anything I can do to help it

Height of plant
All 3 of my plants are different sizes. Next time I’m only gonna grow one strain at a time unless there’s a way to speed up the growth of the other two. I have a yellow spectrum light I was using for veg that I can put on the left of my grow tent & then put the flowering light?

Are my Bruce banner big enough for 13 days old ? The pellets were too dry for a couple of days (only 70% humidity) at the beginning and maybe the light was too weak (I used 40% of 205w Led at 70cm from the plant, area is quite small). What do you think ? Thx !!!

Will my plants bounce back or should I replace them? Rainbow melon and bubblegum, have spare blue dream, gorilla fast, and candy.
Limb damage. Bubblegum hit worse but it did open sunlight up a good bit. Maybe the extra light will put them right back in a few weeks. I have 3 unmaimed plants i had inside i could replace them. how can i move my pots out from under the tree? I never wanted them to go there but
