ok well first of all, soil pH is 6.5 to 7. anything different than that will cause issues.

next, if your using good dirt, dont feed any nutes til they are atleast 6 inches tall with many more leaves.

how is your drainage? how long is it taking the soil to dry after you water? less then 3 days is a sign that drainage is too high, more then 6 days means its too poor.
temps, around 75, will be fine.
more light = better results.

also, do you know your humidity? seedlings like humidity. cut off the bottom of a 2 liter bottle and put it over one of your plants. the next day youll notice water beading up on the inside, thats good. compare that plant with the rest. is it better? make sure you uncover it every now and then to remove excess humidity and prevent mold.

and your light cycle, for seedlings, go with 24/0 or 20/4. that helps them.

i also sing to my plants, talk dirty to them, and call them names, but thats just cuz i like my plants like i like my women, dirty.

Thanks for the reply's...
I know im killing them with kindness, but I cant help it I want the damn thing to GROW.
I havent given them any nutes , only 1/8 of seaweed extract.
soil is for seedlings so it doesn't have any nutes.
I only water when its dry , so I dont think im drowning them

on my next grow I'll move the light up.but I cant be-leave that its only the light.

but is there anything else im doing wrong.
Do not give them anything at all until they are at least 2 weeks old...! NOTHING AT ALL...only water...and is you tap water safe to drink? because it is better for soil plants than RO water is..if it is safe for you, it is safe for the plants....
It is 100% overfeeding...seedlings need only water...they have as much as they need right there right from the start..for real! How many plants have to die? How many?

They make seedling soil for this exact reason. All the good soils have nutes in them, you are just killing them with the soil. Get seedling soil, plant the seeds in a solo cup put a dome over them and light until they start to grow. Make sure you have holes in the bottom of the cup and do not transplant them until the roots come out of the bottom of the cups. I dont care how big they get do not take them out until the roots are coming out of the bottom period.

SEEDLING SOIL, SOLO CUP, PLAIN WATER AND A LOW WATAGE LIGHT BULB IS ALL YOU NEED.
