Sounds like overwatering to me, pictures would help. Seedlings don't need much water, I would say just water them when you notice the leaves standing like they are reaching for light maybe once every 3-5 days and not as much when you do. Also this will force the plant to form a better root structure by sending out roots in search of moisture.

I could be wrong but see what everyone else responds with and make the call.

If your temps are good and you're not introducing nutes yet. It's usually a PH problem that deforms leaves. Make sure your PH is where it needs to be
