Seedlings had no roots and died, help?

[bluedawg68]

My first grow. The seeds germinated nicely, I planted them in Miracle Grow potting soil, they grew about about 3 inches then, they just died.
I examined the seedlings and found that they had no roots.

Any idea why this happened ??

I have a new batch of beans germinating now and do not want to get the same result.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like damp-off. Your medium was too wet.
