General rule of thumb....fungus is a hell of a lot easier to prevent than to
treat. Give your seedlings more light, less moisture, and some air
circulation, and pray for the best. With only the first set of leaves, they
may not have the resources to overcome it. You could start some new seeds
as backup; they are large seeds and grow quickly. Nick the seeds with a
file, and/or soak them first, and be sure to use clean containers and
sterile potting mix.

Good luck,

From the drawings in my
book it looks closest to leaf spot.
ACtually from further web research it doesn't look that much like
photos of leaf spot. the brown discolorations are small and the leaf
is showing considerable rot from the edge. Where it hasn't rotted, the
leaf looks good.

I'm guessing some kind of fungus? Haven't purchased any kind of
fungicide spray. Recommendations?
