let me guess..you start seedlings in OF? Something I would never do..but each to his own. How would you know if there's a hot spot that didn't get mixed well?
Anyway..starting seeds should be simple and easy..I like inert peat with tap for at least the first week or two.

that's a good tip for who-ever. Not a fan of it though. I tried it years ago in tap and saw more issues than I wanted to. Tap here's pretty bogus and glad to not use it besides cloning and popping seeds. I like to have total control over food and ph asap.
I bet maybe her seeds are junk and/or trying to add food and high ph..hard to say. Might have even drowned them..I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle of all that.
