What the hell is wrong with this seedling?

First ever indoor grow. Both plants are a little less than 2 weeks old. One is OG Kush and the other Sour Diesel.
The problem is with the SD. It's lacking begind in every possible way. It's smaller. The leaves are dark green, not soft at all. It has a purple tint to it. You can't see it in the picture but it is growing a 4 finger leaf. It's just bad and it makes me feel bad every time I enter the grow box. What should I do? It got the same treatment as the OG Kush, so I don't have a clue what's wrong.
They were planted in BioBizz all mix soil. The SD also had problems with sprouting. I had to take off a small membrane, that was holding the first leaves.

Do I keep it or nah?
Dude they are soooooo young still! I have had plenty of babys struggle to start taking off. Usually after the first transplant where I use Azos + Mykos ) good shit right there ) they always just start taking off like crazy after that and leaves look perfect . Roots start shooting out the bottom holes of pot within week or two. Just give her time. If after a couple few more weeks and she still doesent look as good as you think she should then clone her and try again

I use FFOF with some added perlite and worm castings. Usually mix worm casting lightly for first transplant then go heavier ehen transplanting into final flowering pot. 70% soil. 20% perlite. 10% worm castings with some added Azos & Mykos at the root zone

Dont bother adding benies to soil, it has them already, save your money :-)

Thanks for the advice. I already grew a few bagseed plants just for fun. The big ones in the background. It's not that I'm really stressing, just need the plants to be about the same size, when I hit the switch, because I have limited vertical space. But it's all cool, thank for the advice!
your plants in the background already looks like you hit the switch to 12/12?

Mycos and azos i mean, pointless in soil. Soil has all thats needed, your roots do the rest :-)
I mainly add them to prevent transplant shock. And I will say that they always recover much quicker when adding azos and mykos. Also the roots seem to get to the bottom holes of the pot alot sooner.

The fact that they got all the cultures for these products from 'soil' should point out the obvious about why if growing in soil they are not needed and already there in a more diverse and stable product than any additive you can buy.

Yeah, those are some bagseed plants. Had a very poor live. Were growing in almost non existant sun for fun. Now i placed them in the grow cabinet to see what I can get from them. To be honest, they are doing much better then I was expecting. I take them out every evening and put them in every morning for them to flower
