put them in bigger pots.
stop feeding them until they get 6 to 8 inches tall.
stop watering them so much.
after doing all that, they should be fine.

Well, I have to say that I think your problem is two fold. First, its no mites. Second, it over fert, and you know what to do from here on out. Third, you use some shady/crappy pots for your seedlings. I can tell by the debris/crap on the side of your planter/cereal/two-litter bowls that you let standing water lay in on the top of the soil. I'm pretty sure you dont have drainage wholes in your cereal bowls, god knows what you have those chopped two-liter containers. Standing water=fungus. You want your runoff to be "dirty" and not your perlite on the top layer. Chances are that your roots and stem are infected with fungus too. I would start by making sure my pots have good drainage, and if not put them in a pot that does. You can use neem oil (organic fungicide) in you waterings and sprayed onto the top layer of the soil. Very safe way to treat. In short, lay off the nutes, water only when the top soil is dry and dusty, improve pots with drainage, and treat w/ neem as directed.
did you miss my post?

YOU DONT HAVE SPIDER MITES.
Stop listening to that idiot from Scotland who thinks that your little seedlings are infested. They arent. We've told you this for two pages now. Proper advice has been given. =P

GOT IT..
the man was convincing.. he even made me spend $50+ on overnight shipping for a mitacide.. luckily i was able to contact them tell them i didnt need it and they refunded my card.. now i can go to my local store and get it for $20 if i really needed it
got bigger pots today and repotting, plus plain phd water to 6 inches

Yep good thing..
Anyways, it winded up not being so bad only 6 out of 19 plants have highly noticable effects, repotted 2 so far, going to do the rest later... ill keep them going with plain phd water for atleast a week or two and it should be fine

If you give them plain ph water for "at least a week or two" you will find your plants very dead.
everyone says that good starter soil is good enough to keep your seeds fertilized for 3 weeks, including fdd above
is that not true?
i dont disagree with the fact that i shouldnt feed them, i think your partially right and i plan on actually feeding them 200 ppms tomorrow, but i dont think they would die

That is a question I cant answer -- I'm a hydro guy. Ignore my watering information for soil -- I dont know much if anything about soil.
