What are you using for s grow medium? How wet is it? What's the temperature where your seedlings are? How are you providing light?

My initial thought is damping off, but without more info, it's just a guess.
Thanks all for the feedback. To answer these questions: The grow medium was an organic mix-can't remember the exact one, I think it was Burpee's brand . Little seedlings took off really well, just now having a problem -most plants are 3 or more inches tall. I am trying not to over water- I have a hard time telling when or when not to water, but seems to me the best way is picking up the pot and feeling the weight of it indicates whether it needs water or not, may not be the best method, but I can't tell by just looking at the soil. As far as temp. , I have kept them in garage, mostly has been 60-70 degrees lately in there. Have them under 4' LED flourescent lights, about 16 hours a day. If this is "damping off" are there any solutions? Thanks very much for any advice!
