I’m having a complete nightmare recently ALL of my seedlings are falling over and dying ! I’ve tried camomile tea I’ve tried cinnamon over the soil, I’ve bleached the area and pots. Im losing my mind with this shit ! Im using :
A cheap blurple light around 7000 lux
Plant magic soil
RH 40%
temp around 75
Small oscillation fan in the cupboard
I’m germinating with paper towel Method

I’ve never had any issues before with this can anyone help I’ve wasted so many seeds

In my experience damping off is game over. The soil doesn’t look that wet to me are you sure it’s damping off. The one in pic almost looks like it was injured more so than damping off imo,where you’ll see the stem get skinny at the soil line

I’m not sure what else it could be, I been watering daily but not loads because of this issue. They just fall over and end up dying

And also if it is or you suspect it is the last thing to do is water but again imo its not damping off do you have pics of others

They literally all look like that bro there’s 7 like that and 7 that are ok. They fall over the stalk goes really thin and they just die and go crispy.

I looked hard at the zoomed pic, and I don't see much "pinching". Better pics would be helpful.

I’ve given them another drink. I haven’t had any problems before with that RH.

You might find this article on transpiration, RH %, and how it impacts watering cycles insightful. Between the fan, and 40% RH she gonna loose a ton of water to VPD

Pic 1 looks a lot like a seedling trying to stand up for the first time.

For the best chance at success increase temps to 78 and increase humidity as high as 70% for a bit.

The first few waterings are critical to not overdo.
