Seedlings droopy/burned

Hello all!

I went out to my dad's garden to get some soil for some new seedlings...he uses MG, and I went through the soil to make sure none of those little time-release pellets were in there(cause I was just starting from seed). After one sprouted, the leaves started getting burned big time, and
VERY droopy. Confused the hell out of me - did not know if it was dried up and needed water or it was over watered. But that has to be what happened...a little pellet must have been in the soil. Hopefully it can survive...anything I can do? Just now started growing first set of 3-leaves.TPhoto_00001.jpg

I know I've been trying to drain it every time, it just seems like its getting worse every time. Slowly each little leaf started getting burn spots all over it. Just transplanted in some new, clean soil I just got. It was weird. I watered it a little so I could take it out of the pot. But then it was hard to separate the wet clumpy soil from the roots, but I think I did a good job. Transplanted and watered pretty good..we'll see.

Hey man,
it is still in the same shape. I went ahead a transplanted into a bigger pot. Now I'm thinking it might be a nutrient deficiency. I would say it is close to 2 weeks old so I'm not sure. I flushed the hell out of it. The true leaves ended up turning completely yellow and crispy. The size is the same since a couple days ago. Very slow growth. I have never experienced this before, bizarre

if u flush with nute burn man it will push any salt and extra nutes out but if the plant has had nute burn well it will burn ur leaves no matter what u do as its already in the plant have u got it in some nice soil ?? they plant does nout need any food till ay least 2-3 weeks in soil longer bout 3-4 weeks as they soil will have basic stuff in there for here to grow also now with the early stress u will have a good chance of it turning male

I know I fucked it up and didn't even do anything haha. I really would like to know exactly what caused it though. When I first planted the seed it was with that soil I mentioned which was ok...but must have had a little fertilizer pellet or something - and if not that then what?!. When I transplanted it, I had some real nice soil/perlite/some vermiculite mix. And I hope it does not end up turning male, at the least going hermy. I have some nice GSC that just popped. Gonna keep this one in the corner just to see how it turns out. Thanks for your input man. Like I said, weird as hell..everything was going well and then bam!! Slowly started dying.
