im not an expert but it looks like some kind of nutrient overdose or deficiency. i'd flush them through with just water for a couple of days then start adding your nutes again just make sure u read the bottle carefully I'd start with only half the recommended amount of nutrient or a few days. hope this helps

They are over watered.

When you switched to 12-12 you should cut back on the watering by half. (Depending on the size, medium.)

You can save these plants by allowing the soil to dry, and by reducing the intensity of the light for at least a week.

Cut back on the light intensity, (They can't handle it) because the plants are not able to process the moisture in the soil that they normally would be able to and therefore the light is actually hurting them right now.

Dry them up a bit, let them get over their stress (B-1 when you do water) and within ten days they should be holding their leaves higher. Then increase the light intensity slowly over several days.

They'll be fine. Don't worry.

Well they are over watered right? They are suffering from damping off.

Damping off is the term used for a number of different fungus-caused ailments which can kill seeds or seedlings before or after they germinate.
The term is used most often in horticulture, where seeds are specifically planted to be germinated, especially if in warm, wet conditions which speed growth but are considered conducive to fungal attacks.

These plants will die unless proper care is taken to preserve them. (Starting ASAP)

Also BigBudBolger, the damaged that has already been caused will never completely heal itself.

I would reveg these plants and after a couple of weeks, repot them into a much lighter mix. (More perlite) This will promote root growth, and drainage, which is exactly what these plants need.

After re-veging them, you will see new growth. (Healthy growth)

Best of Luck.
