Yes, pictures help us out tremendously when trying to diagnose.
i planted this before i started cataloging what i planted and when i planted. im assuming its about 8-10 weeks old from planting. the soil is unknown until i get my thermostat in. but i am using a super sprouter germination mat.
I have a timer that i just added to the mat, on for 1 hour, off for 30 minutes, plus i have two vents at the top of the humidity dome that i opened up. humidity went way down, but so did the temp.

I have found that bottom heat and too much water kills seedlings really easily.
WTH is that? No nutes are needed for sprouting seedlings; wait until they get true leaves b4 letting them have a very weak taste.
its true blue before i saw pics i thought u were growing hydro.
ss said right plants root are TeNDER when young
all your questions prob r yes

i do grow hydro, but not when germinating.
thank you for the responses guys!
and im not sure what it is. u pepper is unknown pepper, lol. its either a red habanero, thai chili, white habanero, a smaller bell pepper flavored pepper that starts with the letter M (i forget), or another pepper i got from the hydro store that looked like a fat thai chili type pepper.

it died 
so did my tobacco. i have my plant labels now so it wont be an unknown pepper planted next time! well.. except for the one pepper i couldnt identify that i got from the hydro store. i cleaned out my germination tray today and now have 28 free spots to germinate with. gonna do some red habs, white habs, red jalapenos, green jalapenos (is there is a difference between red and green? the seeds look slightly different), try again with the tobacco, try again with the unknown pepper, and probably plant more bhuts. i get my super sprouter thermostat today too, it looks like the air temp inside the humidity dome was getting to around 85 degrees.
edit: just got my liberty bell habaneros!
