Saving my seedlings!help please

[cnhazty]

So this is my first grow and I got 8 rockwool cubes with seedlings starting to come out... I have 2 that were aboue 1" out of the cube so i set them a little over a meter from the 400hps and set a fan about 4 feet away at low speed.. not much wind but a little...i checked about a hour after leaving them and the weaker one was turned over to its side and the stronger one looked weak compaired to when i set it out their..

Is it to early to put them under the light? or was the fan what did it? Do i need to sit the fan not pointing at the seedlings?
They seem dead or anything...but Will they be ok!!?

dont put them out there when they're only 1 inch, wait untill they can atleast support themselves. like 3-4''. and yes the fan also probably hurt them.

The light being three feet away, should be O.K.

Take some toothpicks and bread ties and support your seedlings. Then use the fan as before for stronger stems. Just make sure the wind is not to strong. A very gentle breeze should be enough. Increase wind, to the plants, as time goes on.

Since you caught it early, you should be ok.
