Do you have a picture? maybe not enough light or to much. maybe to much ferts, are you using ferts with fert balls for extended 3 month supply?

[Dmartin]

No, im using miracle grow, and yesterday i moved the light up higher. Im going to transplant it into weaker soil soon.

next time you fill out a form just copy it and paste it into your post and put your answers in BOLD please.

are you using calmag+ (or molasses)? distilled water has none of the micronutrients in it that say your tap water does. why not use tap water?

also, a pH test kit is a must! you can get a pH pen on ebay for ~$25. you can get a freshwater aquarium kit that will fill in until you can get a pen for ~$6, with pH up or down (whichever is needed, probably down) for ~$3. the last two can be found at any local pet store.

can you get some pics?

Here u go

those are the cotyledon. basically they are food storage for seedlings. it's not uncommon for them to die off.

as far as the lights, you want them between 1-4" of your plants. they are showing signs of stretch.

you are going to need calmag+ or molasses. how come you don't use your tap water?
