Oh boy. Tonight, when you water them, flush them with a lot of water. Water until water is gushing out of the bottom of the pot. You need to get those fertilizers out of the soil. Seedlings don't need ferts for two weeks after breaking ground. Also, cut down your EDIT...opps: watering* to when the soil is dry. You can test this by sticking your finger in the soil or by feeling the weight of the pot. Either way, the plant is flooded. Once you do that, you will start seeing new, healthy growth in a few days.

Too much water. Your media looks real wet for a seedling. Your perlite ratio may need to higher also.

you should not be feeding your plants that young. In no way shape or form. ALL that little plant needs is in the soil for the first 2-3 weeks or more of life.

When the first true set of leaves the little round ones, turn yellow, then it's time. I doubt that those seedlings are going to recover. I think it's time for you to start over.Get it in some direct sun too. It shouldnt be stretching like that man.

HI, thanks to all. It was 100% a water problem, i water them 2 times a week now, not every night, and they are fine. Those pots and soil hold water like crazy.
