Hey guys first grow going not exactly as planned they started off great but around day 6 from sprout started to see stems turning purple and first set of leaves began to turn purple as well
Fast forward 2 days and they all appear to be yellowing as well
Growing in Scott's top soil
30% perlite
20% sphagnum peat moss
50% scotts
I water when I feel the top 2-3" of soil is dry
They are under 6 15w led bulbs running 24hours
Temperature ranges from 75 at night to 85 during the day
Any help would be greatly appreciated

imo just grow coco and perlite and you'll have a better time, when I hydrate coco bricks I just use a gallon and half per canna coco block
the water I used has a ph of 6.4 with 6 grams mega, 1 gram algae extract and probably a quarter of a gram of megazyme and to ph I use nectar for the gods Olympus up and hades down works fine for me.

Give them some time. I would not add anything to them, they don't need anything until they get about 6 to 10 inches tall.

I'll pop a few and give them a go in coco to see how I like it thank you for the help

I would just let them chill, pH probably isn’t your issue, not with your mix. They are just building roots to uptake nutrients and might have minor initial deficiencies. No worries!
