Ignore them, the chair is great, it means you are spending a lot of time observing and learning, oscillating fans will help strengthen stems, small breeze not too strong, the soil is all about drainage and there are some good recipes here, perlite is good and chunky perlite is even better if you can find it, push those plants together to really get them underneath the light, feel free to rotate the plants every so often which will even out the branch structure, good job on a clean room which discourages pests and mildew.....

Yes pH at 6.9 is a little too high, would be better to be slightly lower at 5.8-6.2, if you are using tap water, know that tap water has a chemical added to it which prevents the pH from going too low, but that is ok as long as you add a little bit of bloom fertilizer to the water which will put it down into the golden range of 5.8-6.2, just keep testing the runoff water and keep an eye on it.
