the twisted leaves is 'leaf phylotaxy' and should recover

not so good for the early nute burn tho,

moving plants from one medium to the other is dumb are you can easily burn them as you have done here

peat holds a shit load of water hence nutes ...avoid, for whatever reason...?

potup to a more stable medium.. water well no nutes for 2-3 weeks

but credit to you for noticing so early ...stay sharp

2 other seedlings died in that coco because of Pythium And transplanting to peat was advised by a plant clinic
So u think i should return it to coco or what? This peat is not holding moisture too long maybe because of perlites that I've added

I hope you have that 600w very far away .....200w max on a seedling to start

By far away you mean like 30' above the canopy? :bigjoint: Seriously though AmirR, IMHO you could save yourself a few bucks and put a CFL over it for a couple weeks. That plant cant be more than a inch tall and your blasting it with 400Watts, IMO not necessary. Also, what size pot you running there? IMO at that size you should still be in a solo cup.

It was under cfl for 2 weeks
Some roots were growing out of cup
And not much growth in leaves
And that plant is about 10cm not one inch

Pythium..? No ..most likely it was 'Damping Off' a mold fungi very similar, which means you have to keep every thing clean and sterile, and stay again very very sharp,
imo, return to coco, as before, but review your MO, or method, consider using RO water until established, and avoid feeding for 2 weeks

Yeah it was daming off in one seedling and mold signs in other one that is still in the medium but i don't hope so she recovera take a look

And one thing that make me wonder is that i flushed that coco with hot water before using and cooled down as well but it didn't work

M.O.=Modes Operandi, or your method of growing

R.O. = Reverse Osmosis water with shit removed

avoid using hot water to flush plants, use air temperate water, or water left out over night next to the plant,

it should be about as warm as the roots, and so will not shock them precious roots

if you are finding this difficult consider growing Fox Farm Ocean Forest with 30% perlite mixed in, its a lot easier

Tnx bro
Im using spring water and i think it's soft and shitless and i keep it in grow room so its 22c
I've 3 more seeds in a cup of water and im gonna plant them in soil as well
Well there's no fox farm around but I'll find a good soil and will add perlite my own

Whats your country ...is easier?
I think Auzzie..? check out Bunning's for their cheapest ever 'organic' soil,
but check first if its got them long lasting fertilizer salts
tho not really an issue, but can thro out Ph after a while

good luck

Plain spring water should be good for a seedling. Spring water is a bit different than RO water as the cal/mag and other natural minerals are not removed. It is very difficult to overwater a seedling providing the medium has adequite drainage. Maybe it just needs more water...providing that the medium is sterile. I place a 1kw hps 44"'s from the top of the gravel to the bottom of the bulb and leave it there throughout the grow..

This looks like light burn. How close were you running the lights when this happened? The stem here looks fine. No damping off on there.
