Buds.....I point to you as the expert here. But it's my non-expert opinion that these seedlings didn't have a chance from the get-go. If the soil was....technically speaking....crap, the plant would look like what we're seeing.

Granted...if the lights were too hot, the same symptoms would apply.

If lights could be a concern, go with "buds". If you feel light ain't the problem...it's your soil.

First question is are there holes in the side of your cab where the fans are?
If that is your intake and exhaust, why are they all next to each other?
Second, I would lose the bottles, because you're raising the temp in there even more due to lack of air circulation, and just mist them with straight water every couple hours, also trying to mist the undersides of the leaves as best you can.
Get your temps down below 80 for a while.

Those two plants are dead.
And I took advice from BUDS and took off two lights. Thanks for this !
Its heat that's killing them. They don't like it over 26. Go back to one light ,reduce/stop feeding and watering and hope for the best.
It really was heat and/or light that was doing them harm.
I took the lamps out 16 hours ago and the 3rd plant is almost fully recovered.

Serious lesson learned. Too much is too much.

Also, bottles just fastened the problem in my case.

Thanks for helping !

1. There are holes beside every fan on the side
2. The one in the top corner is exhaust and both below are intake. I build it looking at video in youtube. It looked similar to my project. Should they be placed somewhere else ?
3. Bottles are off, the plants are dead.
4. The temperature is 26 degrees Celsium.
