They don't really look like any of the pictures I've seen of over watered plants, plus they are in coco with good drainage, which my research indicated that it is very difficult to over water in.

I have transplanted tommy smart pots in hopes that will help it out. If these ones don't make it it is not the end of the world to me as I just got the seeds I plan on growing yesterday. I'd just like to find the problem so I learn from it
let me tell u a story now u don't start seedlings in coco been doing coco for about 5 years onto substrate now but thats for another day well u can start in coco but u must not water like u would 2-3 weeks in the plants are still in baby mode so for 1 u dont feed for 2 u water once every couple of dayz till it gets about 3-4 weeks in even then u wanna wait till u hit flower to start hitting 3 times a day if u said u have done research well u have not done good enough research i leave my seedlings in rockwool for 3-4 weeks then into coco even then ill feed once every couple of day till flower then bang its 3 times a day every day for 5 days maybe research a little more ;)

other wise when asking for help don't say it not what people might say it is if so why come on a forum and ask for help ?

They are in coco not soilx so without feeding them they wouldn't have any nutrients, correct? Or is this another time that opinions differ on that subject

I never said it wasn't what people are saying, I'm simply trying to get opinions on the subject. Some people say to feed coco lightly from day 1 and others say not to feed until the first leaves start to yellow. Some people say to water daily others say not to water for a week.

Because of this I am trying to get opinions on what the cause is, you don't seem to have opinions....you seem to feel that what you say is fact while others disagree with you. I do not have enough experience to disagree with you, but something I have learned in my professional life is that 1 opinion does not mean it is fact.

My ph is 5.9, I am feeding at less than 1/2 the rate recommended for seedlings at every second watering. Water is at a PH of 6.2.
