How often are you watering?

They are about 11 days old, the first week I watered them everyday in the morning and then I noticed that the soil would dry up and kinda get crusty on top within usually 12 hours so I sometimes gave them alittle durning the day then after reading a lot saying I should let them dry out iv been running the lights 24/7 so for the past 6 days I've been trying to give them water once every like 30 hours

Yeah they have to really dry out. Like the cup should feel light, empty. It encourages root growth and keeps them healthy. I'd say it's one of the easiest and toughest things to get right.
They look fine. Remember that for the first 3 weeks it's all going on under the surface. You won't see that much happening up top.

Are they regular seeds? What about the grow space? You've got a lot going on there newb. I should know, I am one too!

Are you still doing 24/7 light?? The plants need to sleep if you want them to grow ! Give them the 6 hours of sleep so they can recover.
If you already have, :clap:

This is my first time grow too. When i was at your stage i was over watering and causing the same problem. i then watered every 3-4 and they came out of it. I water even less often now. (Edit) Room is so dark because i was in the process of switching lights on.
