Light suggestions please

My plants have been very unhappy since the move. Almost all my baby plants have died. I did an emergency setup outside in a tub with filters on the air holes to keep pests out but I really don’t know if they’re going to make it. My mother plants are all drooping, as well as brown shriveled leaves stemming from the leaf tips, including new growth.

They have plenty of drainage now. I mixed perlite with sand and peat soil and went pretty heavy on the perlite for the mother plants repot. They don’t really get sun as far as I can tell even though they’re right by the window. My last thought is it needs more light as I feel like I’ve tried almost everything else. I don’t know what else it could be. Is there any lights I could use from Amazon that will work well for my situation? I can include pics. I did also make a post recently from a few days ago that shows it as well.

Update on last post

I recently posted about my plants and some issues I had. https://www.reddit.com/r/GrowinSalviaDivinorum/s/tcDhasx2wY I did some more looking into it. It seems some of my plants in the dome were suffering from root rot. I’m trying to salvage them now with rooting hormone and added perlite and sand to their mix while in the rooting stage. One thing I’m noticing though is my plants look like they have legions and one is even somewhat transparent. I’ve not seen any pests yet. I’m trying one mother plant in a mini dome now, but with average humidity being 60%+ in room conditions, I couldn’t imagine that really being the issue. Hopefully this will help my diagnosis but I’m really at a loss here. I feel like I’ve tried everything but fungi or pest treatment.

Getting really worried. Idk what else to try.

Hey guys I need some help here. I’m not really sure what’s going on. I believe it’s root stress of some sort. No visible thrips or anything but it may be. I’m seeing some holes, dark spots on the leaf, and they’re shriveling up from the leaf tip to the outer, then the whole leaf falls off. My salvia saplings were fine up until recently while my mother plants have been struggling since I moved almost 3 months ago. I’ve tried establishing a reliable routine, just enough light, gave it 3-2-1 nitrogen with worm castings and other stuff recently. They’re all looking really bad, including new growth. A few are close to dying and I’m really panicking trying to figure this out

New account. If we traded recently, please pm me.

Hey guys. This unfortunately is a bad post but I need to make sure to own up to it. This is a new account so I don’t have my contacts or chats I had before so I’m trying to track down who I traded with in the last week. Recently I was traded 2 Lunas for a paradox and cq. My mother plants have been struggling but the new clones in my dome were fine up until today. I had assumed it was a water logging issue possibly or adjusting to the new environment since I moved.

Well… I just saw what I believe to be thrips. I’m currently waiting on my predatory mites and may do an organic insecticidal soap spray. I need to make sure whoever I traded with though is informed. I will purchase the mites for you to make sure it doesn’t spread but I just found them today and felt like I should try to reach out in hopes that you see this.
