I've sprouted 4 seeds and planted in small pots under a grown light in my closet. The sprouts looked good but now it looks like all four plants aren't going to make it. I don't know what I'm doing or where to even begin to research how to do this right. I guess I need to start over with my last two seeds but obviously I don't know what to do. I appreciate any helpful suggestions. Thank you

Pics help

What medium

Lots of info here

Let's start with pics, what medium, what lights

Then we can send you to some good reading material
I sprouted the seeds with tea bags and after 4 days put them in 4" clay pots with Miracle Grow potting soil mixed with Dr Earth vegetable fertilizer. I have them under 18hrs of Vipar Spectra LED light 600W and 6hrs off. I'm completely ignorant on what to do and have tried asking friends and searching on line but if someone could help me with step by step instructions with type of soil, fertilizer, how much to water I would be so grateful. I'm in tears right now because it took me so long to get these seeds and they were expensive and everywhere I've searched the answers have been different.

I posted pictures of my 4 pots. I'm sure I'm doing everything wrong. If someone could explain this process to me as if you were explaining it to a complete idiot because that's what I feel like right now.
 
Looks to me your loving them to death

Too much water

Need to let it dry out,then just water with a few oz of water till it gets bigger


A good soil and nutes for Cannabis is a must

Miracle grow is great for veggies,not Cannabis. Time release nutes is not the correct NPK for weed

Promix HP, or Sunshine mix#4 are great bases to start with

Then nutes like Mega Crop, GH Flora Trio, Fox farm trio


Emily has a great thread on how to water, search for it and read it

Some good reading here

Okay so first I would start with fixing your soil. Buy like Promix from your local store and a bag of perilite. Mix a 60/40 ratio of soil to perilite. Im sure you could even use the miracle grow but mix in perilite. Seedlings like to be kept moist not wet or dry
 
Thanks for the suggestions but Home Depot is my only option since we're on "stay at home" orders. I don't see any of these products you mentioned on the HD website.
 
I've found different Home Depot have different products

Search for

Pro-mix
Sunshine

I have to drive 5 mi to get the Sunshine mix
But my local Hydro store has the Pro-mix HP

Maybe look for a local hydroponics store
