Please help me, this is my first grow. i germinated a few seeds. I soaked them a few days and they failed to germinate. I placed them in a napkin and ziploc and a few of em germinated, 10 or so. I planted those 10 in rock wool and I watered them with distilled water and seaweed extract and fox farms. Here are few pics. Are these seeds f*#ked or can i still salvage these and get some bud? I dont have a flouresant lights, all i have is a 600w mh/hps ballast setup. Help me

looks way too wet, and "seaweed extract and fox farms" ? how much did you put? little babies cant take strong nutrients made for grown ups. it doesnt look good im sorry to say. maybe that one with leaves will make it, but me, i would take this as a valueable learning experience and start over with a mind towards creating an environment that is more exactly what little seedlings want.

Seedlings don't generally need that much water. The yellowing is a tell tale sign of over saturation (in all plants, not just the kind bud).

is it savable ego-trippin?

germination needs no nutes at all. seedlings need no nutes for the first few weeks. all the energy and food for seedlings come from the cotyledon leaves (the first little round leaves the plant produces). once those start to yellow and a couple of sets of true leaves show is when you should start giving the plants a mild nute application. as far as those seedlings being salvageable, only time will tell.
