Not sure why but my babies leaf tips are dying, think it might have been over watering but I have recently bought a new setup. So in my mind it's all worst case scenario. I have four of these,
CF Grow

COB LED Grow Light Full Spectrum 900W

only using two during seedlings stage untill I move them to bigger pots. I know, probably junk compared to everyone else's setups. But I'm a baller on a budget

What soil are you using? How close are the lights? The soil looks kinda dry. Are you adding nutrients? They look nitrogen defecient.

They were about 16 inches away, just let it dry up some since "overwater" on the seventh. And about half of what fox farm recommends for seedlings. I was torn between using nutes or not during seedling so I tried that. Gave em a tiny spray after I shared this.

And the lights are maybe too close, it wont hurt them to raise them. If theyre bright they will dry out the top of the soul too quickly, the yellowing leaves could also be from light stress.

Gonna try em all, tent gets hot from the lights so I use an air conditioner to bring levels to 70-80 f.keeping humidity is a pain in the ass. Should I just mist em'? Used to just grow in my extra bedroom but I just bought a 4×8×7 tent. Now keeping conditions right us actually harder

Just back them off from the light a little and don't over/under water, a potted plant that size i'd assume that's 5+ days before needing water.

Those plants are really small with a lot of damage. Honestly, if you have the seeds or clones, if i was you i would just start over. Its gonna take a long time for those plants to recover.
