Yup, your plants will require nutrients at about 1.5 - 2 weeks old. Give them some N fast and they should be alright in a couple days.

Possibly but as they're 2 weeks old and you haven't started giving them nutes I'd for sure say it's N def. It's textbook IMO.

Well, it could be a couple things. What kinda soil. Were they healthy at one point? kinda large pots for such small plants. Im just throwing out some trial and error shit. Not every yellow leaf is due to lack of nitrogen. a better look at your full grow op would help me help you.

Depending on the strain fully viable seeds will have between three to five weeks of nutrients in them for the seedling to survive on. Feeding prior to that is usually problematic. Your soil appeared rather moist in the pictures. How often do you water? Over-watering can cause a nitrogen deficiency, especially in seedlings. Sometimes people will harm and even kill their babies with kindness by over-watering.

I have one planted in a miniature teapot. It may be tiny but it's nice and green. It's been in this situation for almost a year. I have never fertilized this plant. The teapot has no drainage. I water it with a table spoon. Since I took it out of the window and put it under a small flouresent (24hr) about a week ago it started growing nice shoots. I have never fertilized this plant. The dirt was from the ground.

This plant is my future mom. If anyone of these other people were taking care of her, I'm sure she would be dead long time ago.

you should get into the habit of watering when your pots feel light. I just lift my pot and i can tell when she needs water.

Wow ... I have never in my nearly four decades of growing heard of anyone intentionally doing every possible thing wrong to bring along a mother plant.

I hope it works for you.
