Losing My Plants

[jagle]

hey all, im a complete newbie, started a closet cfl grow, journal of which is in my sig, anyway running sannies jackberry, and kokush, everything was going fine until about a week ago, now i fear im losing my ladies.

started noticing little white spots on my leafs, thought it was the beginning of PM and sprayed with bakingsoda/water solution for a day or 2 but it seems to have an adverse reaction to the plants, after that i thought i had over watering issues so have kept them quit dry up until 2 days ago, when i gave them a lil drink but they havent really recovered.

i popped another kush and a el monstre a week behind my other 3 and soon after there growth slowed to a crawl, noticed a weird redness under alot of leafs on the plants, anyway i filled in that form, and have pics of my plants ranging from 5days ago till this afternoon

lights are on 24/0

the soil was just normal soil for germinating and seedlings from garden centre

They appear to be too cold to me. If they're too cold, you can push all the feed you like but they won't be able to use it. Combining the cold with low relative humidity and you see the leaves curl not just downward, but inward.

I see a lot of people talking about overwatering seedlings, and I have never been able to do it, ever. I keep my seed starts in a tray that I always keep at least 1/2" of water in, always. That means that the soil never dries out, and according to conventional wisdom my seedlings are overwatered.

the purple colour suggests coldness to me. TS1
