it looks like a phosphorus deficiency and you might have a nitrogen deficiency too.
What are you feeding them?

You're over watering. See how the leaves are drooping? Sure sign.
Let it dry out, then transplant... you're at or at least very near that point. The appearance of deficiency could be N, or a cause of the over water situation.
Because you didn't inform us what medium you're growing in, it's hard to recommend a water/feed schedule. Please do let us know the medium.

I think it's a bit premature to tell a P def given the plants are so new, and they are over watered. The dark spot is a sign, but the plant is missing noticeable cues of a P deficiency: significant curling leaf edges and blackening of the leaves.it looks like a phosphorus deficiency and you might have a nitrogen deficiency too.

What I recommend to new growers of anything, is take an empty pot, fill it with dry medium, and put it in with your plants. When you go to water/feed, lift a plant in one hand, the dry pot in the other, and if they are relatively equivalent in weight, it's time to water.I always expect the soil to dry while I water it. Maybe it's time for a transplant. I haven't started feeding yet. He's using food in the soil. I'm transferring them this week. We'll see what happens. I'm going to do an update
yes, there's no watering until you feel the lightness thereWhat I recommend to new growers of anything, is take an empty pot, fill it with dry medium, and put it in with your plants.
