So I'm gonna tell the story of these seedlings, then post pictures, then do my best to answer the questions I'm supposed to answer in the OP so you can best help diagnose and resolve my issues.
Few months ago I exchanged some work with this local hippy grower lady for about 120 of her seeds. She gave me Chemdawg, Deadhead OG, Purple x OG Kush, Planewreck and Purple x Trainwreck. I can't remember the exact date that they were germed but we're thinking it was around late april (20-30th?) so they are around 2 monthsish? Or 1 and 1 half months.. Anyways things have been going cherry so far. They were germinated in Light Warrior by Fox Farm in jiffy cups. When the roots started to shoot out the bottom of the cups (really quick lol) I transplanted them into blue party cups. They are 100% outdoor plants. When I transplanted them I started to run out of light warrior so I cut them lightwarrior with some dirt I dug up out of the ground and some of this random black shit my friend had a bag of.. So some of them are in some pretty crappy soil at the moment. Oh almost forgot, we've been feeding them with earth worm casting tea aerated with an airstone. The compost is in a sock floating around in the aerated bucket. We were doing the EWC tea every day for a week and then switched to every other day.. They are watered once in the morning every day. So here is what they are looking like right now;
this is the chemdawg baby who happens to be one of the healthiest looking... The rest are mostly similar to him/her but just a tad less vigorous.
The other half are all afflicted with something like this..
One of the droopier examples.

So now the questions;
SOIL:
How long has this problem been going on? About 2 weeks
What STRAIN are you growing? Chemdawg, Deadhead OG, Purple x OGKUSH, Planewreck, Purple Trainwreck
What was the establishing technique? (seed or clone?) Seed.
What is the age of your plants? 1 & 1/2 to 2 months..
How long have they been in the soil mixture they are in now? Couldn't say accurately, probably 2 weeks.
Were they in the same mixture when they were seedlings/smaller plant? If not, what mixture were they in before? They are in the same mix in the jiffy cups they were in, the jiffy cups were transplanted to blue party cups.
How Tall are the plants? 3-4 inches on average, the tallest being about 5.
What PHASE (seedling, vegetative or flower) are the plants in? Seedlings
What Technique are you using? (SOG, SCROG etc) Outdoor container SOG until they are sexed, then the bitches go in the ground around the property.
What size pots are you using? (Include how many subjects to pot) 1 plant per pot (except one where there is 2 which was an accident), blue party cups.
What substrate/medium are you using? What brand of soil mixture are you using?(percentage of perlite, vermiculite...etc?)
Organic soil, mostly Fox Farm Light Warrior with some local soil and old black compost bag mixed into about half the party cups.
What brand Nutrient's are you using? At the moment feeding EWC tea, aerated with an airstone every other day.
How much of each nutrient are you using with how much water? *Knowing the brand is very helpful* EWC tea, a sockful in a 5 gallon bucket, aerated 24/7.
How often are you feeding? Every other day.
If flowering, when did you switch over to using Bloom nutrients? n/a
What order are you mixing your nutrients? (example: veg nutes 1st, bloom 2nd ect) n/a
What is the TDS/EC/PPM of your nutrients used? Don't know..
What is the pH of the "RUN-OFF"? Don't know..
How often are you testing pH/ppm/EC/TDS? Never, was under the impression it was unnecessary with organic soil but if I should start adjusting the PH I can do so..
What method of pH test was administered? Using Strips? pH pen? Nothing yet in the way of PH..
How often are you watering? Once in the morning. In the beginning my friend who owns the property was overwatering and I corrected him.
When was your last feeding and how often are you feeding? The last feeding was yesterday morning.
What size bulb are you using? The sun.
How old is your bulbs? As old as time..
What is the distance to the canopy? n/a
What is your RH Factor? (Relative Humidity) Outdoors..
What is the canopy temperature? 75f today
What is the Day/Night Temp? (Include fluctuation range) 75f in the day, cold at night 50f - 43f
What is the current Air Flow? (cfm etc.) Nice n breezy.
What water are you using? Reverse Osmosis (RO)? Tap? Bottled? Well water? Distilled? Mineral Water? Water is pumped from a well.
Have any pest chemicals been used? If so what and when? No.
Are plant's infected with pest's? There are some bug bites on a few of them but that is not a major issue at this point.. No signs of spider mites or anything like that, though I'll keep an eye out.. If its recommended to me I'll spray something on them or make a tea of some sort, I would prefer if there weren't the bug bites but I'm told by my friend Steve its not a big deal.
Thanks for any input. I took out some of the questions which seemed specific to indoor...
