It now got more browish now but small leafs are growing also the round leafs.

last time i had brown stem someone told me it could be fungus. Because it didn't grow just died but i think problem was i was overwatering it.
This time i am watering from bottom when soil in bottom is almost dry.

One of my previous girl grew her leafs and then the round leafs went up like she was praying and died her stem was brown colored that's why I am worried this issues will happen again :(
 
Howdy Johncena, I have noticed the 'purplish' coloration on the stems of my plants on previous grows. It seems to only appear where the light directly shines on the stem, in the past the color stops where a fan leaf shades the stem. In my opinion, it is a natural reaction to the direct light, sort of 'tanning' in people's skin. I have not noticed ant detrimental effects from it, not like the light 'bleaching; of the upper leaves that are too close to the lights.
 
Hello yeah you are right i had them in direct sun light before. Now i have them in indirect sun light. Lets hope she will suruve.
 
I hope so as well. I do not grow in soil so I do not have any information on soil related problems, such as fungi and nematodes although I do know that there are both good and bad of each found in organic soils.
Good luck with Your growing!
 
One of the seedlings fan leaf in pointing down stem looks okay still growing a little bit. Soil underneath is still moist so i did not water it. I checked ph its between 6,7 - 7

There was a time I over watered a few seedlings and I found a little trick that has kept me from getting any more damping off... simply place a solo cup or similar over your seedlings like a dome while you water them and take it back off when done this helps you not watering right on the seedlings so it doesn't get soupy around them. By the time the seedling is to big for the cup it's pretty strong and can handle more
