I’m a total beginner when it comes to growing, and I had a friend toss me a few really good clone seeds so I’m trying! From the looks of them, What do these guys need?
The second guy is struggling

Hi and welcome. If you really have no idea about growing i’d recommend doing a little comprehensive reading on the subject first…here’s a good 101

Otherwise a lot of the terms you’ll see in our troubleshooting suggestions will be foreign to you.

In order to offer the best help/advice, we need to know some things. Can you fill out as much of the below as possible? I am going to delete a few items that do not pertain to your grow.
-What strain, Seed bank, or bag seed (photo or auto)
-Age of plant/what week of flower
-Method: Soil w/salt, Organic soil, Hydroponics, Aquaponics, KNF
-Vessels: Pots, Grow beds, Buckets, fabric pots
-PH and TDS of Water, Solution, runoff (if Applicable)
-PPM/TDS or EC of nutrient solution if applicable
-Method used to measure PH and TDS
-Light system LED, MH/HPS/CMH/Fluorescents, or other
-Actual wattage draw of lights
-Current Light Schedule
-Temps; Day, Night
-Humidity; Day, Night
-Ventilation system; Yes, No, Size
-AC, Humidifier, De-humidifier
A few basics based on soil grows
Need good soil, Cannabis friendly
Watering is Flood to drought and I see you have the perimeter thing down.
pH is important. Soil needs 6.2-6.8 and a good meter will tell you what the run off is so if needed you can make corrections.
Temps, Humidity and lighting are also all important.

I’ve been on sites doing research, but still not confident in diagnosing. Figured I’d post here and see if you guys had any useful info/tips.

Fox Farms OF is highly recommended by others here.
I used a 50/50 blend of ffof and roots organics original for many years with great results. very easy
Fox Farm is your medium…
A growing medium, also known as a substrate or potting mix, is a material other than soil that is used to grow plants in . Plants require a medium that can hold their roots in order to grow, but can grow in anything really, as long as there is water, sufficient nutrients and oxygen available.
With the same soil
So you recycle the soil after you have finished one harvest?

That light is really only big enough for one plant IMHO
Go hydroponic it’s amazing results. When I used fox farm I had gnats. Try to get your soil from someone who stores inside out of the weather. Good luck with your grow
