I am having SERIOUS growing issues and I am not new to growing I have grown plants a few times all with sub par equipment and now I have the best of everything and nothing is going right.

Let me state my stats first
Temp: 70-76
RH: roughly 60% fairly constantly
Soil: Professional mix containing perlite, vermiculte, peat moss, and dolomite lime.
Nutrients: Fox Farm trio
Lighting: 6500K temp 4' floro tubes and also 400 watt with cool tube
Water: Have used tap which is around 7.8 ph, drinking water at 6.0 and now i am trying another drinking water at 70

My problem is my seedlings are growing EXTREMELY slow and they are curling HORRIBLY after 10 days since sprout seedlings are at most 1" tall. This has happened my last 4 trys. Curling almost like a spiral, water once maybe twice a week drainage is good. Last time I checked a few of them and when pulled out of soil, root system is minimal like it almost stopped growing after germ, leaves look badly stunted, again curling horribly sorry as i cannott better pics. I have tried many different configurations with soils, water, nutrients, temps. I am having these problems that i have never seen with little effort at all. I need some serious help. I have also used mutliple different bag seeds, tried some without germing anyone using this system with a better idea. Thanks in advance

seems weird im sure your lighting schedule is right on ans with you trying dif waters the only thing i could imagine is bugs in soil or messing with the humidity. hope you figure it out man

i had a similar problem with my last 2 plants, i had 2 plants mayb 2 wks old and they just started to spiral and just die and not grow at all, well i changed my water from tap water to botteled water and i flushed them with the bottled water and 2 days later they perked up. i think it was somin in my water that caused it for me but u should give it a try, just flush with bottled water and water everyother day. hope it helps
