I last sprayed it around 2 weeks ago but it really hasnt looked all that healthy for awhile now.

Duane, sometimes seedlings that stay in a pot for an extended period of time just start to yellow on the lower leaves when they get older. Daconil doesn't have anything to do with it; what you're describing likely isn't fungal.
If the roots and upper foliage of the plant still look good, strip the bottom leaves and plant it deep.
I really do like to get the plants out from under the lights as soon as possible -- I know it's been tough to do that this year.
I hope I can finally get some of mine out tomorrow.
