unfortunately the plants look past saving, on the bag of guano I have it says for young plants to use 1 tablespoon of guano per gallon of water one time for the first month. So I would say you did overfert with the guano. That sucks man, but consider it a lesson learned...

Actually, they look exactly like the weeds I put Round-up on the other day did. Took about an hour. Gangjababy's right, they're... gone. Say a nice eulogy.

346ss..... Your plants were over-fertilized / over-watered to death.
.
From seedlings to week three they should not be fertilized, if there is any NPK in your soil. They are dead to this world - write them off and move on. Sorry.
.
Attempts to save them would be a waste of time, effort & money. It's a live & learn thing... we all have done it.

Kindness sometimes Kills..........
