Extremely sick baby!

My baby is EXTREMELY sick! I am a first time grower so I am really looking for some help! She is 2 weeks old. she was growing great for the first week and a half and then I put a fan on her, on low, and it was oscillating. I woke up the next day and she looked horrible. My roommate started mixing in veg food about 4 days ago. She was fed every other a day, small amounts. I though it might have been nutrient lock up so I leeched the pot. Its not in hydros, its in soil under a MH on a 18/6 cycle. Please help me! Sorry for the blurry second picture, I am going to try and take another one with better quality.

yeah get a roomate that ain't dumb you need to wait at least two weeks to start feeding, no way in hell that thing could ever even absorb an ounce of what it sounds like they put in, the best advice i can give you is to read up on this site for at least two weeks then start over and tell your roomate to keep away from your babies at least until they know what there doing

lol thats a great recommendation and trust me that idiot wont be anywhere close to it. unfortunately, I'm not sure if i can get my hands on another seed..think there is anyway this baby can make it? i'm using ph7 water from a RO unit that is used to make water for a fish tank.

what is your set up? I can give you some starting tips first only water when the soil is almost completely dry not just the surface roots will actually rot and mold if they are wet 100percent of the time

um if there is a chance your best bet would be to take it to the sink and pour as much water through that soil as possible let it drain out and then pray

its a closet set up. humidity is about 50% at the most, air temp at about 78-82ish. 400 watt MH. i also have an oscillating fan to push the air around.

ok well is there a way you can bring up the humidity to about 68% i doubt you even have roots left to absorb water and if you have leaves left they can absorb moisture it might keep it alive but deffinatly fulsh the soil out with clean water

i started flushing it with fresh water today. I'm gonna let it sit over night and see what happens. i'll try and see if I can bring the humidity up a bit. any other ideas?? thanks for you help man. i really appreciate it.

also dont have the fan on for too much time know just now and then to keep the temp down or keep it on just point it so it dosent hit the plant for now at least, its good for making stems stronger but your plant needs to rest its exhuaasted

did that yesterday after reading some other posts. I kind of assumed the fan might have contributed to the problem. It's still green and she seems to be responding somewhat to the fresh water..i hope she can hang on!

well having a positive outlook will do more than you think sometimes. if it seems to be responding it might not be that bad could pull through i burnt a seedling once 70-80% of its leaves were gone and its surviving just fine so heck anything could happen

i got this one from a friend and i don't think he has any others. im not 100% about ordering them online.
ok well if i were you i would get myself a prepaid credit card and go online and order under a fake name and see if theres an address other than yours that you can ship too see if you can make a deal with your friend to split some seeds if you can have it shipped to him. the main thing is if you name isnt on the package and you paid with a card that has no name on it they can say you even ordered it

hey no problem bro +rep would be nice :). but hey if it dosent respond or does but you think the soil might still be toxic the next thing you should try would be to transplant and flush again, basically leave the soil around the roots with it and put it in some fresh soil. after that i dunno give her a couple days though
