I'm not an expert but it sounds like damp -- off to me which can come with to 
much moisture and heat. A perfect breeding ground for fungus and disease.  I 
read somewhere that after you have planted your seeds that you should very 
lightly sprinkle a fine dust of sphagnum moss which acts like a natural 
fungicide and supposedly can protect your seeds from damp off. Also 
ventilation seems to be important. Some have suggested an oscillating fan for 
a few hours a day.  Not directly on the seeds...just so that there is a 
little ventilation around the seeds.  Hope this helps. Keep us posted.
