Okay, so this is my first time growing. One of my seedlings has stopped growing at about 5 or 6 days and the other was doing amazing but the "True leafs" started looking like they were trying to close. Also the one that seems to gave stunted is still alive, but the first "true leafs" haven't grown in days and they are starting to get yellow/ white on the tips. I have a better grow light coming but for now I'm using these small LEDs I had around my house and they were doing great until now. I personally think it's just that I hadn't watered much since I was scared of over watering and the lights being too close since they were only about 2-3 inches away from the tops of the plants. I have now watered them very well and raised the lights up to about 18 inches. Any thoughts would be appreciated. These seeds were a gift so I wasn't really prepared. (Sorry for camera quality)

Pretty sure poor lighting is your issue. not enough wattage, wrong spectrum, etc. The plants are very leggy. The white tips may be from having the light too close. Hopefully your new lighting will arrive soon, once you get better lights, things should improve.

Your seedlings look like mine šŸ¤“ I let them stretch out and do their thing. Then I bury them in soil up to their necks. Roots grow from the stem. šŸ˜‰šŸ’ŖšŸ‘
