1.If you have Java installed and mods in the mods folder at .minecraft then your good to go.
2.Mods need to be for the same version number and working on a strict Forge version.
3.JDKs are for development (which is why they are called a Java Development Kit), I think this can appear in errors for the user (as far as I've come across at least with Forge errors for 1.13.2+) so it's best to ask the creator of the mod or using a different Forge version/older file for the mod you want to see if it still happens. But otherwise a JDK shouldn't be considered unless your creating mods, not as the user.
If you have any screenshots/a video that would be helpful.
decided to start completely over.... remade mod folder, downloaded new mods,etc. etc. appears to be working now. not sure what I messed up on the first time.
I'm still fairly new to this, and I don't play minecraft to much. I've learned where to put the mods, after downloading. have java update and everything else.
Though when ever I go to play. I look at the mods and says on each one. blah blah blah, missing JDK. Redownloaded all of them thinking it was a bad download. Nope, same thing. got rid of them and went for completely different mods. still same affect.
fyi I did have lucky blocks working at one point. But that was a while ago, and on build 1.14 something. (that's how long ago it has been since I played) They weren't working either before I got rid of them on current build.
I've looked all over the internet scowered for the cure for the "missing jdk file" to no avail. so finally decided to ask here. sorry if this isn't in the right spot.
