I think im giving to much red light so i will switch back to veg setting and put the light closer, the first time they died with veg setting they were in clear cups and i saw the root swrivle but after getting pot to block the light i tried veg and bloom for germination but i read too much red light isnt good for seedling and early veg because it suppresses the beta-carotenes which slows carotenoid manifestation which is bad for respiration because the carotene is a hydrocarbon compound and the availability and utilization of carbons is essential for respiration for creation of strong stem matter which was my problem because my plants grew huge leaves and toppled at the emergence of the 3rd set which mean they weren't making it out of veg

you could start with a flouro tube 25w or so until they have first set of leafs. then stickem under the led.

if you say you have your light at 50" away then i think your problems lays elsewhere.
