    babies starting to yellow? help pleas

    so this is my first grow...

    the first little set of leaves is yellowing and dying
    the first set of fan leaves is starting to yellow from the tips back, and the leaves are starting to droop and curl under

    the Ph of the soil is 6.5
    i water every other day, sometimes i skip a day if the soil isn't dry
    i haven't been using any nutes because the morning glory soil says it has enough food for 3 months
    they are in a 40% MG potting mix with moisture control 40% organic potting mix and 20% perlite mix that drains well
    i germinated them in peat pellets
    they are now in peat pots
    under 4x 42 watt cfl on a 18/6 timer and it stays between 68 and 82 degrees F, 40-60 humidity, and i keep the plants 3"-5" from the bulbs
    im going to add another 2 bulbs soon
    there air is exchanged every 4 min in a 2'x2.5'x8' closet
    they are 12 days old

    what could be the problem?
    how could i fix it?


    any advice is appreciated

    sincerely

    They are 12 days old in MG soil? That's probably the problem right there, the soil may be too harsh for those seedlings......
