do you keep them in the propergator untill there a certin size or do you remove them soon as theyve sprouted and put under the light
 
How are you germinating your seeds? Paper towel.. once you get a tap root you transplant it in to a medium rapid rooter, rockwool, soil. Seedlings do not need the humidity like clones they are new and there is no damp off to worry about.. I somewhat sounds like you might be over handling them.. Pop them in a paper towel(moist for 24 hours) then put them in a dixie cup with some soil, water and you should be ok..
