Seedling looking funky

Hi All!

I have a bunch of seedlings I started about 5 days ago. I'm in a coco perlite mix 50/50.

I was watering every day at 1/4 tsp nutes. I started to worry that my soaking wet rapid rooter plugs would give my seedling stems, stem rot so I skipped a watering and waited until tonight to feed again. When I got to my grow location I saw a few seedlings that looked like this.

Any ideas what's going on and suggestions on what to do from here?

The other factor is I lowered my T5's a bit as the stems looked long and weak. So they were about. 8-10 inches above. My humidity was 22 and my temp was 86.

Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't feed anything for a few more weeks. There really isn't a benefit until the roots get established and actually most of the time it is detriment. Many more on here that know more about liquid nutes than I however.
Temps and rh will give you an issue in the future

Are suggesting that it's some kind of toxicity of some sorts?

I don't like to feed them till they have developed nice looking leaf sets. They don't have to be huge, but nice looking. Once that happens, they start getting fed.

I've also tried using time release nutes for seedlings, they seem to like that as long as they aren't too strong and have time to establish... Also sometimes I sow right into a soil mix and the mycos eat my seed before it can even germ, LOL
