Are leaves this colour ok for young plants ?
They are drowning.
Surface dryness is a poor indicator of the actual root-zone conditions.
The best way to track their water needs is to weigh the pot.
Fill a pot with dry soil and sit it next to your girls.
When you want to check water levels, lift the potted, pot, then lift the dry pot and compare.
Yup, it's that easy.
To repair the present problem.
Get a slightly larger pot, put some almost dry soil in it. (does not hold it's shape when squeezed into a ball)
Very carefully un-pot your ladies and set them into the new, soil.
Surround them with more slightly moist soil and back the light off for a day or two, they should recover.
Next time.
Wait until they actually need water, then water sparingly.
Seedlings don't need much.
No love them to death, yah?
Aloha.
