Is it soft or squidgy?

Looks fine to me. The greying might be nothing, or it might be some scabbing caused by mites or something.

The soil looks like it has a lot of peat in it. Also does that plastic thing it's planted in have plenty of drainage? Just asking, Sue

It looks like sunburn/sun stress, I would repot in a far more mineral mix, cut out peat completely. Check the roots for rot but other than getting out of the bad soil it looks good, they do go purple with sunslight.

Looking back on the original post, that could be very mild sunburn. It will probably heal up, it's not too severe. The Loph seedlings look fine, slightly sun-stressed but far from sunburnt. They look thirsty to me.
