Welcome to the site Jeff. What type of soil? Do you have pictures? It could be that the soil came with nutrients mixed in

When the leaves yellow right off the bat , it is hot soil or low PH almost every time.

No pics yet it woz a seed and cutting mix ime not home at the min ile try get some pics up later I thought it would be low in nutes because it's for seed? Cheers mate everyone seems realy helpfully on here! Ime trying to follow fd's grow guide and he uses the same sort of thing I think :-s

Yea it says on the pack it has slow release nutrients in it is there anything I can do to try and save it or should I just start again with different soil?

There is something off with the mix or the ph of the water.It has to be one or the other.

I ph'd the water to 6 I that right for a seed? I had the light a bit close for the first two days could that have affected it? It's only a cfl tho so wasn't that hot.

Thats a bit low try to shoot for 6.4. I'd flush with a jug or 2 of 6.8-7 to reset the mix.Then slowly lower to 6.4
