 Dying Seedlings :(

Help help! These are only a couple weeks old - little to no roots are growing out of the bottom of the cubes. I started them off with a very weak nutrient solution, but am now using 100% ph-adjusted water (around 6.5). Temp fluctuates between 85 - 92 F

From what I have read, seedlings do not need nutrients for the first few weeks. So even though I was using a very weak solution, it was probably too much. I flushed them out with water and will see if they are salvageable.

sorry to say, but your temps are way to high. Here is a chart i made from Jorges Grow Bible. And seedlings are more prone to heat damage than full size plants.
And here's my seedlings(PISS1&2 and B.Kush) at 3 weeks 2 days after first feeding with 100% strength nutrient solution. Theres a good probability that all or most of that is heat damage. I would water with diluted nutrients next time it dries out and find a way to cool them down.
