That's nothing to worry about. As long as yours are green and look healthy and are still growing, then be happy and be patient, because you're doing fine.

What type of lights do you have and how close are they to the plants?

If the plant generally looks healthy, and a leaf fell off, then I don't think it's a problem.

The plants NEED to be in separate containers (otherwise the roots will get entangled which is not good). That light is a decent start, but not nearly enough light to fully grow those 2 plants. That's fine for now if they're just seedlings, but be prepared to buy many more of those lights. I also recommend CFLs because those long lights aren't really optimal for only 2 plants.

And just to make sure your yield hopes are realistic: for a first grow, and only two plants (assume 1 is female), and keeping them that small, you should expect only between an eighth and a half O. Obviously once you get better at growing and if you get more space then that can go up a lot.
