this happened to mine and its because i didnt water enough. water the entire area it in like within that circle. water till quenched also maybe heat stress? im not sure but as i can see from the pics your soil isnt wet really on the stem area water everything and see how it goes. maybe a more experienced grower can help you out. good luck.

are they growing at all? or they not moving? They may have a deficiency if watering won't work. i really can't think of anything else to do.

well.. they are growing slowly but they are growing which is why i have not killed them but the next sets of leaves are starting to go yellow o_O but i will see how it goes,

i just bought some "all purpose" potting soil to plant my new aurora indica seed i got and maybe ill find out that it was the soil that was bad??

also i think i may have burnt them i had 2 40w cfl less that an inch away for about 2 days which is when i started to happen, but now they are about 3 or 4 inches away.

thats heat stress move the light away some

i was just starting to think that, give me one min and ill go take a pic of them now to show how far they are.

*EDIT*

ok here is the pic


the lights are now just about 3 inches away from the babies. should they be further away from them while they are young?

i dont really know how warm the room is, i need to get a thermometer

and i have a fan going in and a fan going out, but the fan going in is not directly on the plant. and now the light are 5 inches above the top of the plants.

what height do you suggest i have 1 40w cfl over a seedling, not even out of the dirt yet?

Im happy you may have found the problem. Lets see how the plants react to having the light farther away. If they return to normal then heat was your enemy good to know for future grows. hope everything turns out well ill be checking back every so often.
