That happens to me everytime I try to use an indoor greenhouse. The only thing that saved mine was to plant them outside and add some miracle grow. I'm not sure what it is about the indoor green houses that do that if you are doing something wrong with it so am I but i'm not really sure how to keep it from happening.

That's hard to tell. I have trouble with the plastic green house. I just planted mine in a planter bed with no plastic cover over it and set it inside a south bound window. My plants are doing so much better this year. I don't like covering the seeds when I first grow them.

Try germ?nating them first in nothing but damp paper towel for a few days w/ no light in empty jar with air holes the seedlings should be hatched .Then transfer to prefered and or recomended soil for whatever type of ''thing'' yer growing at this stage go very low power of light i.e.day light.then a week or so as they are showing out of soil go with the low wat light.and remember that adaptation plays a part in the growth therefore, transplanting to bigger pots is mandatory for optimum size . 2 things from here to remember . [assuming yer going artificial light]1 as your plants on avg. only can utilize 18 hours of sun light per day for photosytheses. Thus ,a 24 hr. cycle is electricity overkill.Dont overwater [assuming your NOT growing hydroponically]. If the later hydro method is utilized go ask ed rosenthal on line. hes the man! as far as what you did wrong ? or what was the killing factor? this is tough to asses due to more info needed on other details i.e. temp. co2 consumption/availability. h20,shock,nutrient o.d. or mal nutritioned . etc... your artificial environment is complexed in that you need to mimic the ideal for whatever strain your experimenting with. remember that in order to succeed in growing failure is needed so you can learn . nothing should be looked at as wrong if you intentions are based with best results in mind. always read all the stuff you can . search botany or horticulture.in turn by learning from what didnt work.you find what will work.always monitor subjects . If things arent progressing use subtle and only subtle changes to tweek in correct direction . theres no reason you should get instant death unless you neglect,or experience sudden extreme drops in temp. or theres a fire i.e. something wild and heavy out of your controll.hope i helped a little. good luck getting thumb green.its just a matter of time before your giving the pointers.

You may be under or overwatering them. If the plants are still small enough, cover them again until they revive.
