What the hell is going on?!

Hey everyone, so as a bit of background, I am growing autoflower white widow. Unfortunately, I had to leave my babies for a week unexpectedly and when I got back on Sunday I think I over corrected the under watering that they were subjected to during that week (gave them water on back to back days). I also swapped out my 90w LEDs for a Mars Hydro T1000 (150w) when I got back. While I realize this was probably pretty stressful for them, one of my plants bounced back very quickly and seems to be thriving. They are both in happy frog soil and the only difference is that the one that’s doing well is in a 3 gallon pot, and the one that’s hurting is in a 2 gallon fabric pot.
I haven’t given either of them nutes yet (was going to start this week), only 6.5 ph’d tap water.
I know it’s a shot in the dark, but is the strange growth due to the overwatering, the light, lack of nutes, or maybe even wind burn (the plant that was hurting was in front of the intake fan)?
Any tips on how to bring them back to life? Will they recover? I’ve held off on watering so that they could dry up a bit (why the soil looks dry), but was planning on doing a very low dose of nutes along with the next watering.

Thanks so much!!!
