I have some autoflowers that I don't think are going to make it. Germination went well and from there to rapid rooters. A few days later I got my first set of leaves then they started dying. Too hot?? Too much light? Distilled water with no nutes? Over watering?

I am sorry to hear that, all my though and prayers are for your plants. Without any pic nobody can really tell what happened. Even then, only you really knows all the fine prints. Most common death cause of seedling is fusarium wilt aka damping off. It can affect any plant but best ways to avoid seedlings death is to have the perfect watering schedule as they are very fragile at this stage. Tap water should be fine distilled too.

Sorry, I was in complete panic and left out so many details. Plants are doing better this is a hydroponic grow water is kept between 5.5 and 6 ph. Idk what my problem actually was I can say I cut half my leds off I have a roleadro 1200w led, I also added nutrients @ maybe 1/10th bc I was using distilled water and I stopped watering the seedlings that are in my rapid rooters. Original problem was my seedlings that were in rapid rooters were wilting and yellowing but over watering and too much light kinda have the same symptoms and I believe I had both

You didn't provide any details so my guess is overwatering. How did they dye? Did they wilt... did they turn brown... any spots or deformities... what were your temperatures... how much light did you give them... what was your watering schedule... what is your water's pH...

If they are damping off then a little sprinkle of cinnamon around your babies and water in and they won't dampoff. Damping off can happen when soils are to wet and light to weak. Can only speculate without a diary what is happening. But a little cinnamon around new born will stop damping off. Cinnamon is anti fungal. Cheers

Hi mate, best thing you can do is update your diary with as much info as possible. Including pictures, watering amount and frequency.. etc. Then post another question someone will be able to help you then. You haven't given enough information to go off I'm afraid. Hope this helps you get sorted 🙂

I used to kill seedlings with too much water. Airy roots are paramount.
