the vertical leaves on that are like mine, but yellowish brown
while other ones are healthy
 
cotyledon leaves are the small rounded leaves that are the first to sprout. They tend to die off sooner or later, how quickly I think is determined by the strain, soil conditions and amount of water available. As they supply the plant in it's early stages with extra water and nutrients. But I wouldn't be concerned, just the natural process.
