Please help me with a first time grow.It seems as though my seed has stopped growing before It ever got started.
I germed my seed with a moist paper towel and in a day or two my seed had about a quarter inch or so tap root.I place the seed root about a 1/8" down in some soil in a 7oz cup.I used a 26w 1600 lumen 6500k cfl bulb about 2 inches away from the soil.The soil I felt was never very dry or wet I would give the seed about a cap full of bottled water every 24 hrs or so.The problem that I have is that my seed managed to push it's way to the top of the soil in a few days but had stalled there.I was checking the soil today when the seed had kinda rolled on me.I noticed the root tip of the seed was brown and the root had just growing in a small circle.Has my plant died now?What could of gone wrong for future reference.Is there anything that I could do know to save this little bugger? thx...

p.s. temps where a steady 80 degrees.
