Need help, seedlings looking bad.PICs

these are Mr nice's nl5xskunk#1,i planted them in coco coir,the stems are getting soft in the kidle and the seedling just fall,can anybody help me,i use destiled water ph'd at 5.5

what is your humidity? And how much light?

50% RH,5 incandescant 23w,i think its probably from the coir or some fungus atacking the stem,dont know what to do

humidity is a llow for seedlings, have a dome to use till the straightn up?

Your lighting isnt ideal for growing but it will work for seedlings. Your problem is coming from your coco setup. Explain your tub and grow medium with detail.

thats what i thought,the stems are drying in the middle and the seedling just falls,il try another bach in soil but i would like to save these
i took em out of the dwc tub and just have em on a plate under the lights as close as possible

I see a few issues here. You environment seems fine, so the issue is obviously your medium/protocol Are you using hydroton? You have to wash it very well and PH the hydroton with 5.7 water before you use it. Other wise it will be acidic.

Also, they might be getting a little bit too much water. What pump are you using( power wise) and how many liters are in the DWC? It could be that there is too much water being adsorbed through the medium.

Where did you get your seeds. Some times a bad batch can have quite weak genetics.

Are you hand watering you seedlings? you should hand water to start with until there get their first 2 leaves.

just use soil, if i was you id use fox farm ocean forest, its a great starter soil and when the nutes run out at about 2 weeks u add your own, simple as pie...
