Welcome to the forum @Kingtut24 
From the looks of it you are seriously over watering your plants. Them babies only need misting, with a sprayer, if you continue to over water they will die... it's called damping off, and basically you're causing root rot...let them dry out till they feel empty...the roots like a dry period to stretch out and look for water.
I just popped a bunch of beans and the ones that are a week old are twice to three times the size of yours.
Although Jiffy Seedling Starter mix is awesome
it's what I use...it will hold that water for days...so be careful and good luck...
If you have anymore questions and/or concerns
and if you can handle constructive criticism 
you can tag me by putting an @ in front of my name, I'll be more than happy to help, and if I don't know the answer, we'll bring in someone who does

Well
actually I have a pretty weird way of watering my seedlings 
I keep the surface moist with a sprayer, but only for looks I set my solo cups in a coffee can lid, and I wait till the cup feels empty, then I put the equivalent of a swallow of water in the lid so it can be sucked up by the soil and the roots will go straight to the bottom and spread, so that I can transplant quicker, and give them a good/real watering...I'll get some pics and be back to show you...but the important thing is to let the soil dry out before watering again
Okay I'm back and here's the pics of my 7 day old Pineapple Chunk
...EDIT: This only works for photos, not for autos, which are planted straight into my pre- moistened FFOF in a 4 gallon pot
