OK. Im trying to grow for the first time and my sprouts keep dying. Im keeping them under 2 20w GE Grow "natural light" flouros on an 18/6 light cycle. when the first set of leaves start curling under the plant begins to wilt. if this plant doesnt work im gonna try in a "jiffy pot" ( you know those small natural flower pots that when you transplant you can just drop it into the larger pot.) Since im trying this for the first time Im just growing 1 plant. Also keep in mind im on a budget.

Heres my setup.
and another pic.

that sux man well see if i can help... filll the pot w dirt leaving like a half in.. r u germinating them first?? leave the light for 24 hours and humid. the humidity will help. try using rock wool cubes for the seeds it seems to work a little faster...
