There is your answer, right in your documents. 16" is the recommended height in veg and then to have enough light to bloom you will need to drop it to 13"

That sounds like a good plan and I would start at 18" just because they are so young, but as soon as you get 4 leaves, I would lower it down to 16".

Seeds do funky things sometimes, if they don't shed that shell on their own in the next day you can surgically pull it off yourself and help them out but be careful

If you plant the seed a bit deeper into your soil, the friction of the seedling moving through the soil will remove the seed cap for you 
just for next time

How close is your light? They almost look like their working away from the light. They should be dancing and reaching for the light. You can take some tweezers and pry open the seed to remove it, or just wait it out, they should fall off eventually.

I’m so sorry this happened again!! Is the light too close and getting them to hot I wonder?

led light in a temp controlled room at 72 degrees with a fan on the plants.... they were dieing just after they broke the soil while in the window sill before going under the light. i posted pics of it days ago before i put em under the light. i posted the pics days ago to show they were not doing good... i watered them twice a day sparingly.
I’m sorry this happened. K so, I think you may have been giving your plants too much love. You can love your plants but there’s a difference between smothering and loving.
That being said we gotta get you some more seeds, and this time, don’t put them in the window sill. Put them under the light, they will get everything they need plus more from your light.
Also, I think you may have had your soil too wet. You need to create a good wet/dry cycle.
When you water, water enough till you see run off out the bottom of the plant, about 20-30% of overall input. Wait a few days till it’s noticeably dry, and significantly lighter then when freshly fed. Then hit them again with the same feeding technique you used before. Creating a good wet/dry cycle.

I blame the seeds... not you. It can be damned frustrating, I know. Get your message count up so you can PM me... I have an idea that might keep you from despairing too badly.
