no nutes for the young seedlings. i would repot them in a neutral soil like ff or botanicare. good luck

Your links not working my friend. But to hazard a guess the nutes in the soil are probably too high and are burning your babies.
I don't give any form of nutes for at least 4 weeks, sometimes longer if plant is slow grow.

cheers guys,ive repotted 1 to see how it goes

Glad to hear you did. You're gonna want a soiless mix with a neutral pH for early plant life. This gives you control over what the plant gets and saves you from the headache of figuring out what deficiencies and surpluses of nutrients your soil mix is providing your seedlings

a little on the yellow side? tips and spots or a yellow shade to the entire leaf?

if its the tips and spots on the leaf that are turning yellow and dry, its pob nute burn but if the leaves are a yellow tint, i think thats a sign of a def or it could be natural however 4/5 days old seems to be messing with them too much.

u growing indoors with lights, if so what light etc, if you provide more detail of setup it would be easier to say.

i'm no expert but i would leave em alone till the roots have developed a bit unless you have a serious problem.
