Those leaves die, Always watch the new growth for problems. What are you going to use in your system?
 
The seedling leaves seem it be fine along with the bigger first pair now that the second leaves or new growth r comin out they (to be dying?) r back on the tips can someone plz help me for it to last thanks again for your help
 
Went out and got a Tds meter, meter reads 950 ppm seen somewhere that is to high for seedlings (also read seen somewhere if your using organic you do have to worrie bout the ppm anyone have any input on this) so I cleaned out the res put new water (tap water ppm reads 150) added couple drops of nutr water read 240 ppm am I on the right track

I am thinking too much nute organic or not. Plants that size do not need a whole bunch of nutes. Flush the system just do water and make a light foliar spray and use that for now. maybe 1/8 teaspoon per quart.
