Sick plant

[Gingerbeard]

There are actually different 'guidelines' you can find on the internet about seedling to veg after so many leaves. Except for nutrients, there isn't a lot of difference in how you grow them.
If you work your SF right, you can bring your little plant into a producer. It'll take time but you can do it. Depends on where you want to go from here.
So... where do you want to go from here?

Your Ferry Morse light is no more than a t5 fluorescent bulb. Fluorescents (t5's and CFL's) usually stay 3"-4" from your plant.
If you were using a t5 for veg, what brand and model is your LED?
Are your plants autos, feminized, or photoperiod? If auto, you can save them with what those other folks are talking about and decent lighting and look for a couple bowls. If feminized or photoperiod, you can grow them out to real fine bushes. It'll take some work but it can be done.

my led is a spider farmer sf1000. I was trying to use the t5
for seedlings, led for vegetation. (Or just the t5 for the small plants)
The plants are feminized.
I don’t think it matters too much but at exactly what point does a plant go from seedling to vegetation? Is it when the plant makes a fully formed palm shaped leaf or just when the plant makes its first leaves with a serrated edge?

Its a little leggy cause it's chasing the light. Move it closer. Looks like a case of overwatering and should have been moved to a bigger container, and it might need some food if there isn't any in the grow medium. Not too late to save it. Give more grow details, environment, temps, RH, nutrients, feeding schedule, grow medium, lights, distance to canopy, etc.

I can’t give you numbers but the generalities are that the seedlings start in the bathroom and then are moved to a closet. Both are air conditioned so low rh and temp about 72F. Also I have a fan blowing over the tops of the plants in the closet. I water when the surface is dry. I don’t provide additional nutrients. I bottom water- when the surface dries out, and leave the pots in the standing water for about 5 minutes (until the surface is wet again). (The problem plants I feel sure were watered way longer than this.)
The plants were too close to the light on the problem plants (I feel sure) with light burn. Now I put the plants 5-6 inches away. (I had read a website that said 2 inches was ok) the square led lights are at 24 inches (now).
I do have a few plants in an 8 inch diameter clay pot and the peat cup is buried in potting soil.

When/if you transplant it, plant it much deeper, and loose the PP

Are you suggesting that I can bury the stem below the surface of the soil and just leave 2-3 inches of stem above the surface, and roots will sprout from the stem that is buried?

I have several of these that look pretty much alike.
They were over watered early on, then possibly too much or too little light. I know these are no good but I need to know what to do next time.
these were grown inside, in the peat containers. I started the seeds to seedlings on a heat mat, then moved to a small ferry morse light (white fluorescent) then moved to a foot square led light. I am trying to keep the light the correct distance. I think the light was too close early in this plant’s life, as well as overwatering. But please give me your best diagnosis. Thank you.
