New Growers - Need Help, Maybe (PICS)

First of all I would like to say hello everyone. I've been observing this website for quite some time trying to learn as much as possible for my first grow.:hump:To get straight to the point I have some 8 day old seedlings and the tips of the leaves have just a little yellow in them. I did some research and found this may be the beginning of nutrient deficiency. I really want my plants to come out good the first go around and I'm trying to prevent problems before they become a MAJOR PROBLEM. I have my plants on a top feed drip hydroponic setup with 2 40watt growing flourescents. They are getting fed 3 times a day for 3 mins. I'm using Holland Secret nutrients. The first 7 days were half strength. Now I'm on full strength. Humidity stays from 60%-70%. Temp is between 70-80F degrees. I'm not sure of the strain, but I think they look decent so far and I wanted some pro's advice. Thanks!

Thank you for the fast reply!
You think that's what's causing the yellowing? Also the rock wool cubes are pretty saturated and we arent sure how much to water them with. Some tips would be nice.

add more light, dont use full strength nutes for another 2 weeks, get an hps before you flower em. They look fine dont overfertilize

Here are some new pic's of our unknown and some new babies we germinated 2 days ago and have them on 24/7 light with distilled water. We decided to go back to 1/2 strength nutrients for the NOW 9 day olds till 3rd week and no nutrients till week 2 for the babies which will be 1/2 strength same plan. The lights have been within an inch for the babies and the Unknowns. We had the Unknowns too far at the beginning. The new babies are 3 White Widow and 3 Bubblicious from Nirvana. GROW Babies GROW.
