Plz help my seedlings!!!

[The FARMacist]

what am i doing wrong? i am using the aerogarden spacesaver 6 with the sponges that came with it. i had four seedlings that were all doing fine until the second week. the first thing i notice is the leaves were drooping and looked like claws, tthen the started to change into a yellowish white color. after that brown spot were popping up everywhere. its been a month and 1 week my plants still have the same number of leaves have only gotten a little taller by an inch since the second week. what the hell happened? the water temperature stays at 82 almost all the time the humidity is around 20% ad im only using the lights that came with it. two of my plants died around the second week so i started a new seed about two weeks ago it was fine until last week it started showing the same symptoms and has now stopped growing.i think the sponges are creating some kind off mold. but am not sure i use no nutrients and distilled water. Can any one help?

i forgot to mention that when i touch the plants the leaves crip off, and the stems have a purpleish tint to them.

yeah im just doing only water for now, at first i was using tap water. i switched to ice mountain water after three weeks but nothing ever got better was it too late?

Get a ph tester and clean the reservoir out. You should start a grow journal if they survive. Im about to start a space saver 6 grow and id like to know how yours turn out. Im only growing 1 at a time though.

Have you grown in the spacesaver before? i was gonna start one a couple weeks ago but i lost my motivation to do it cuz off the problems.

definetely sounds like their is something systemic going on with your water, whether its the ph or bacteria, do you have any sort of airflow going on?

yeah i have the airpump on at all time but no airstones.

 

[Boneman]

Ditch the aero and grow in dirt.

 

[The FARMacist]

should i get a airstone, or should i get a stronger air pump and a bigger airstone.(i think the aerogarden pump is weak and doesnt provide enought air to the roots

 

[The FARMacist]

I use sunleaves starter plugs and this also happens to me. I just added 2ml of Pure Blend Pro Grow and 2ml of Cal-Mag Plus to a gallon of water and have been feeding them that. It slowed the yellowing down and I have seen new growth. Hope this helps.
