too much water?
soil needs wet/dry cycle, roots need oxygen, i perfect holes in bottom and sides of cups.

Smaller containers make it difficult to control water effectively. The soil that you are using might be a little hot for the seedling... some strains seem to have problems with it. I would NOT feed for at least 2 months,especially if you move them into a larger container. Once the plant gets some larger roots it will handle the soil better, but don't be in a hurry to feed as you will probably cause more problems with burn and maybe lockout issues. I
My recommendation is to just keep going without feeding for at least 6-8 weeks. After that, feed very sparingly unless you see obvious deficiency signs. Keep giving it tons of light and room for the roots to grow. Larger containers will also provide a larger supply of nutrients since there is more soil available to draw it from. Good luck... keep up the good work.

Is that Medium Black Cow?

Regardless it's too thick, stays too wet, needs 30% perlite added when you up pot next time

I always poke holes all over my plastic cups. Young roots love oxygen. Poke holes all over the sides and bottom. I take 5 cups stacked at a time and drill a bunch of holes in em.

Black Cow pH is around 5.5 regardless of the water pH.
