According to your diary humidity is too low and temperatures a bit high for a seedling

Because it is in a tiny cup that is only half filled, which is restricting root development. Clear plastic cups are a no-no too.

Wet paper in plastic baggy - outdated dirty practice?
The old toilet paper and plastic baggie method for germinating seeds? I did that 2 times around when I started growing my own in the mid 90s. I didn't like it, wasn't resonating with me, obvious flaws. So I started doing it differently. Whats a better EZ method for home/hobby?

First time grower, trouble with pythium
I have a 5 gallon mesh pot with coco Loko, if it is true that the plants damping off had pythium, could they have possibly tainted the coco loko medium that was in the tent ?

Seedling looking sick/weak/sad, please help.
What could be the reason why the White Widow seedling´s cotyledon leaf and the only 2 mini true leaves shrunk and look a little bit less alive? Background: 4 days after sprouting I removed the wet plastic film , day was hot (86-91F). Light 30 in from the canopy. Stems looks ok

Slow/stunted seedling, why?
One seedling is stunted, why? One of the seedlings is noticeably slower than the other, it’s leaves are curled under and there’s a brown spot on one of its Cotyledons. The other seedling is being treated identically and seems to be thriving 😕 (last photo)

Seedling looks the same for the last 3 days.
I don't know how this works, but let me try. My seedling looks almost the same for the last 3 days. Is it ok? or it is a sign of something I do wrong. She spent 1 day in the bucket at 24 degrees Celcius (75F) Is it called a shock or stress?

Unstuffables
I put my light way down on 20% As soon as the seeds pop I will pull it away to 30cm and push to 70-80% at 19/5 cycle. Would you cut the light completely until they push through or put the lamp further away on more or less light?
