I'm a relatively new grower and I'd appreciate any advice. I'm growing in a 3 1/2 by 3 ft grow wardrobe with three plants. Plants are a week old, 1 is beautifully healthy, the other two are getting there. I have 3 100 w equivalent cfl 6500k and 2 85w equivalent 2400k. They are only a couple inches from the tops of the plants. Not sure exactly how much air I'm moving but I do have an exhaust and intake fan. I'm using FFOF soil. Using just distiller water currently. I figure they are to young for nutes (other than the ones that are already in the soil) and the PH is not bad on the water. On a 24/7 lighting until 2 weeks till flowering it'll go to 20/4 then of course dropping to 12/12. Any way my middle plant has a dark looks like dead spot on each leaf. The leaves are also curling a little. Welcome to any advice on anything or how to help my plants. Thanks guys.

Your bottom pic looks good. Sometimes a seed just won't make it. Couldn't tell u why, but when they come up with a purple stem they're almost never as vigorous as a stout, light brown one.(in my exp)

Try to keep them warm during germination, and don't be afraid to stick them down close to an inch or so.

Thanks. I thought I had that problem in the beginning of putting them to shallow. The bottom is doing good. Growing at the rate it should but does have a slight browning along the very edge of the plant. I'm hoping it's nothing. Could the top picture be nute burn because the FFOF is to hot for seedlings? I'm just confused because it was doing well then over night those spots appeared and it stated curling.

It could be, but I doubt it. I've never had OF burn any seedling by itself.

When I sow seeds, I wet the soil then dont touch it until they sprout. It kind of looks like they were too wet the past week.

My first leaves always come up wierd, even in seedling mix. Then the rest flatten out.

I'm just on the edge of my seat because I only think one of my plants are going to do well. Fingers crossed it's a girl
