help seedling please

2 days old looked good now looks like this

WTF?????????
Give us some info.

info like the lights im using ???

Everything.
Lights, temp, watering habits, PH, etc..
You didn't try to feed already, did you?

Looks like it just popped out of the soil to me.

2 40 cfls. temp 78. im thinking its the water

Kinda difficult to tell what's going on in the picture. Like Bakatare said, give us as much info as possible. Include soil type/mix, water source, and if possible, a higher quality image. As this stage it could be any number of issues.

Distilled or RO water only for seedlings. At least for the first 5-10 days IMO.

clearest shots i can get . do you think its to much light i had it under for over 24 hrs

My seedling are under light 24 hours straight until I move them into the veg room. How close are the lights?

about 8' away

should i give it canna rhizotonic?

Not yet dude. No nutes at first. Seedlings can't handle it. What soil are you in? I'm assuming you mean 8" and not 8'... Pull it back to about 1 foot or 12 inches away. ITs probably your light being way too close. Unfortunately, it may be too late for this seedling.... All you can do is nurture it and give it time. NO NUTES!!!

WHAT WATER ARE YOU USING? Water quality is one of the most important aspects when growing anything, especially the good stuff...

pureified . is that good enough ?

Honestly my guess would be a problem with water, you are using too much of it. That soil looks soaked (pic #2 looks mucky). Though your seedling like to be wet they don't need to learn to swim. Keep your soil moist but not wet.

I was thinking overwaterd from the start

Purified with... Brita? DuPont filter? Or purified from the grocery store? Either way, I've tried all these methods and nothing beats distilled water(.89 a GAL at my grocery store) or Reverse Osmosis water. I do agree that it is overwatered, but that may only be the tip of the iceberg.

When you say it looked good, what was that like?

I've been reading wanting to say it doesn't look like he's got enough Perlite in the soil mix also.
