What soil/medium are you using? What lights are you using? Are you growing indoors/outdoors? What temperatures? How much are you watering?
Here's what you need to post to get quality help on your grow.
(1) Give images under metal halide, cfl or incandescent (no hps).
(2) Give complete synopsis in one post telling us all the details.
(a) substrate
(b) nutrients
(c) additives
(d) age
(e) strain
(f) environment (specifics on temperature swings, images of habitat, ducting, humdity, etc...)
(g) miscellaneous
Now you will have a chance of getting meaningful support because most people here would like to help you. Unfortunately without this info all we are doing is guessing. If you decide to use the wrong guess you may end up potless.(b) nutrients

Thanks guys, well I'm growing indoors using Coco grower drip system. The area I start my seedlings in is 2x1x1. The temp is at 78 and humidity at 42. I start by germination, then I pop the seed into a 1.5 rockwool cube after I soak it in water. I have it under 1 t8 florescent light. I was told not to water until around 1 week. Ihave not watered her yet but she is deep green. Any ideas

Medium appears to be the problem. Have you tried growing in soil directly? (after germination, placing the seed into the soil?)

I've never used rockwool cubes or anything of that sort. I germinate my seeds and place them about 1cm below the soil, and make sure the seed is tilted on the side.
I'd suggest you get some regular soil that has no nutrients and pull that seedling out of the rockwool cube and place it inside the soil then give it a nice watering and allocate the seedling 3-5 days to recover and begin growing.

do not use the dripper on your seedlings untill they get a week or two under then. Untill the roots develop hand water..while coco cannot be overwatered that isn't entirely true i have noticed that untill i get about 10 days growth under mine i dont like to water them more than once every 3 days and once i know they are full of roots i start my everyday feedings
