Yo people I have recently started my first grow with seeds and I'm having a few issues. I got some good quality seeds, 5 OG Kush, 1 Honeysuckle and 1 Cinderella 99. They all live together and all germinated very well, I decided to plant directly into my final sized pots instead of going into smaller ones and then replanting. Most of them are responding very well but I have 2 or 3 that are starting to flop but the leaves are still coming through, any help and advice would be appreciated! I can provide more details and pictures if needed! Please get at me people!.
Having Issues!!

nice space !!
they are sick, maybe can be saved though.
what kind of soil you using?
add anything besides water?
bucket light or heavy?

Those pots are way to big to start. Standard beer cup/ or party cup would be better to help establish roots.
I've used gold label special mix, only feeding water, roughly about 800ml every other day.
I thought that but I didn't want to stess them out having to repot at a later stage. Is there any way to keep them going? Like you can see the other 3/4 are looking very healthy and developing well

you believe those seedlings/pots are using 400 ml per day? =over watered
gold label special "Special Mix contains nutrients for almost a complete crop cycle." http://www.goldlabel.nl/87/Special-Mix.aspx =
overfed. some plants can handle it and some cannot.
I'd scoop up the root mass and transplant into some substrate that has no nutrients. start in a cup with drainage , water only when the cup is light again.

I started in solo cups and transplanted after a week and a half. Transplanting isn't all that bad. If you were growing auto strains, then placing them seeds in Their final pot is more necessary than when you are growing photo period. A common soil grower usually transplants 2 times seedling to veg, veg to flower. But really there's no right or wrong answers. I would probably throw them in the beer cups. They might thank you for it.

my rooted ones go into a tall cup of pro mix and water. They get several inches tall and ask for food, they love dead fish powder.
I foliar feed a couple times with a weak mix pure blend and transplant into one gallon grow bags, another shot of powder till I have a five gallon(pro mix/powder/4 cups organicare crumbles, again in 30 days) bucket space in the flower again, rinse, repeat.

800ml every couple of days is way to much .why are u feeding plants that are not even established yet . 2to 3 weeks is when people start to add small amounts. . take them out of them pots and get cup size ones. change the soil for fresh . if it's compost then there is enough food in that for 4 to 6 weeks.. just water small amounts. or u will loose them .. heat wise what light u using. take that fan lower and face it up to the light to take heat off the plants .. 77f. to max 82f 83f.. what size is the tent and what size filter
Quick progress report. They have responded well to no water and lowering the lights so thank you for that advice! As you can see from the pictures we still have 1 possibly 2 sick ones. Gunna stick with no water for another 4/5 days then see how we are looking, if you have any advice for the remaining sick babies please don't hesitate to comment!.

how old are they . I started feeding mine . very small amounts at just over 2 weeks old
Sorry for not posting in a while been busy! They are still healthy and progressing very well! I topped for the first time yesterday, gunna leave them to recover for a week or so and start training!. I am aware that the big one has what I think is a slight mg deficiency which will more that likely be because I haven't put them on any nutes yet, gunna start them on their food this week now they are strong!.
