Starting in the morning is it is getting worse. (I'm sure lots have felt my pain and stress lol.) I am 90 % sure this is not do to under watering or over watering. It could be heat problems but I have high doubts, it was doing just fine all this time along with the others sitting between 70F-80F and an oscillating fan circulating the air. Im using ffof, this one is 17 days old using around 6.4 6.6 ph water. Now as for lighting two clf 5000k daylight 1300 lumens each. The grow box os 3 ft wide 2.5ft tall. Here is a pic of the plant.
  
I really appreciate the help thanks to all!

Btw thanks hawk, gave her some extra water; not to much though just to see if she will bounce back even a little. (Cross your fringers.)

Do you have drainage holes in that container? Are your other plants exhibiting any similar traits?

Plant got even worse after I watered it? I was told to transplant into a bigger pot to get water out and stop it from drowning... I don't know man it's confusing I have plenty of drainage holes but I have noticed the soil drys up pretty fast though. Also no other plants are showing these signs.

the ffof might be a little to hot for plants being as young as they are. my first round of growing i had some probs using ffof right off the bat with new seeds. but they did bounce back after.
now i use a 50/50 mix of ffof and peat moss so the soil mix is not so hot for young plants.

FFOF is a little hotter than most other soils when it comes to seedlings and young plants. Most people usually 50/50 the FFOF as MrShroom stated. I would get that plant in a new container that has better drainage. A nice fan in front of it with a good light source should bring it right back to life.
