It is very possible that light may be leaking through the grey tote. I may try wrapping it with something just in case light is the problem. I just also learned I may want to use some beneficial enzymes too. My water temps were high for about 2 days also.
And I've been told that my medium being too wet could cause it. They said it's called damping off. I'm going to read about it and possibly not use the aero garden seed pods anymore.

After pulling the two with problems the one left was doing really good but it ended up being a male.

Dont get discouraged man! U was going good. If u stay hydro ill recomend this, technaflora bc line. They have a "receipe for success" follow it exwctly as it says amd ur gonna be successful and it was 60 bucks for everything. These guys will grill me for that but I did it on my first grow amd it worked. Now this being my second amd 3rd grows im using cyco platinum series. Which is 200 for the kit on ebay and it as well has a feeding schedule right on the lid of the box amd here is my plant at day 43 of flower

Looks good. I'm nowhere near a hydro store but the last road trip I took I grabbed some flora nova grow and flower. Seems to do good. I also got some beneficial enzymes for the res. I'm not going to use the aero garden seed pods anymore because they hold too much moisture. Instead I'm sprouting my seed in jiffy peat pellets then putting it in a home made net pot with fish tank gravel. Hopefully I can get a female this time. I'm still just using bag seed until I finish a grow that way I don't waste an expensive seed. I also have a seed I found in an ounce of strawberry cough that I'm going to grow out after I get everything dialed in.
Soon as my seed sprouts I'm going to start a new thread. I'll post a link to it in this one once I get it started.

I did some reading about peat pellets in fish gravel. In my system I should have no problems. I would love to have the clay pebbles but I'm nowhere near a hydro shop. Thanks for offering me advice. I'll definetly be hitting you up with some questions here soon lol. I can't wait till this new one gets started. At least with my current down time I'll be able to do a little fixing up on my area. Especially on my ventilation. Need to rig up a carbon filter for sure. This last one got quite stinky. Lol

Haven't been on in awhile. Just went for another run an the way my luck goes. Ended up with another male. Just put another baby in the system. I'm hoping for white hairs this time more than ever. Here was my male. I let it grow a little while I waited for a new sprout.

And since it was a male I didn't pay it much attention and it grew up into the lights. Which is why u can see the burning on the top.
