Try 100% turface, or with some pine bark in it.

If you are ordering so many, use different watering schedules to find out whether you are watering too much, if you really want to find out whether you under/over watered your earlier batches.

When you say dry out and die, how long does that take?

Also what kind of light are you using, it may be too bright, if you use high wattage HPS or metal halide. Easier to keep it outside and use the sun.
