Why do apple seedlings die so easy?

I’ve started having problems with my apple seedlings over the last week too. I’ve lost 3 already and have two more that look like they are on their way out. One day they were healthy looking and standing proud and the next they started drooping over and shriveling up. I’ve checked the moisture content of the soil and it doesn’t appear any different than others that are doing well. I have others that are drooping, but seem to have stalled growth wise. After they started drooping, I added a grow light over them in case the problem was insufficient light, but that hasn’t perked them back up.
