Fixed the problems, but still stumped?

Hey everyone. I am not sure what to do at this point :confused:. I have learned a ton on here and from my mistakes, but I am stumped. My babies at 4 weeks (from seed in FF dirt under Florescent lights, temps 70-75, fan blowing, fresh air) were turning yellow and slowed down tremendously in their growth so I realized I waited too long to feed so I gave then Nitrogen (FF Grow Big). Until this point they were great. I lost some older leaves so they are not very attractive :cry: ....but the new growth is better. After feeding, they were looking way better. They were looking more green, but not really growing. Long story short, I figured out a few nights ago that my Ph meter was broken (dropping it in the water apparently was a bad idea..LOL..). So now the Ph has been fixed (6.5-7.0) and they are growing. But, they are growing very slowly and the leaves are very small (they are 6 weeks old now). Should I be patient? should I re pot? I should have taken some pictures before I started this, but I can't get to them at his moment. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks so much!

Okay. I have got some pictures. I am not sure if I should try to save these guys or not? My other plants are doing great and I am sooooo embarrassed by my rookie-ness on these ones. Let me know what you think - be kind to this old farm girl...LOL...
The first picture is of a seedling started at the same time. It was very slow and kind of a runt. I caught this one in time and fed it early and it is doing great. I use it to compare the crappy ones and what the should look like.
Thanks again!

Yes indeed VV. I have been known to be impatient and do something impulsive even when I know it is the wrong thing to do. Patients is a virtue - as my mom used to say.
