question about seedlings

Hey guys so I have four babies up and running but I have been having a problem starting up my next batch. I have gone through a couple seedlings which just seem to not be able to take the heat over here in the south. I get them to germinate and i put the out but the sun is just cooking them alive and they lose their first little leaves quickly and just turn into a stem. right know i have one which look like just a stem sticking out and I already lost the other one.
can anyone give me some advice as to what to do with my next seedlings i germinate so that I dont lose them? I would start them inside but they arent going to sprout indoors correct unless they are under proper lighting?

are you sure something isn't eating them, because full sun regardless where you live isn't going to hurt them if they sprouted outdoors.

Starting seedlings outside is a losing battle....

Being a new grower myself, I've lost over half my plants that sprouted outside

I think its all due to wild life in my case though. I came out one day and noticed SNAIL on the stem of one of my plants, and the leaves were on the ground next to it

yea im gona go with the wildlife too b/c i have noticed my pots getting dug into sometimes in my yard at night so i can imagine what it would to to a 1 inch seedling... well I am gonna start my next batch which is just 1 WW seed and the rest purple power so could i just leave them outdoors for 8-10 hours for the first week and them bring them indoors for night until they become healthy? or would having them indoors 24/7 for the first week be insufficient lighting?

that's what I'd do but you have to keep some kind of light on them for another 8 hours at least.

yea thats where the problem is dam dam dam hmmm I think I am gonna wait till sat and start germinating that next batch and I will try and bring half indoors during the night but the rest I am actually going to take to the woods leave them germinating in a nice semi shaded area but its well contained from any animals its chickenwired and fishwired out so i know that one spot hasnt been getting disturbed like the others
