It's hard to get a feeling for when to water if you have never gardened, be it vegetables, ornamentals, vine plants or fruit trees. Then soil and coco each have different challenges and tactics. There is no simple answer or formula. You just get a green thumb or you don't...
Or a new grower could buy a simple and inexpensive moisture meter to use as a guide while they learn how to determine when to water a plant. It's a good tool for the beginner.
mmmmm i wouldn’t use those cheap ones..
ok.. i’m guessing your temp humidity etc are good, so again that’s from the soil always being wet ish, part of it might be the seeds just getting things worked out or the soil is just a bit strong (it’ll be ok).. are the cotyledon (small first round) leafs curled down? yellowing?

I didn't say cheap ... I said inexpensive. There is a difference, lol. If it has a battery and an LED I would walk away. I use the old analog kind. They are pretty accurate.
I watered today the little plants. The pot had stopped from getting lighter . I have not watered yet the big plants.
ok.. well one definitely looks better than the other.. might be worth only growing the better one, but still no reason to trash her yet..
No i do not feed them . Only unphed water.
I also put a paper towel under the pots to drain the moisture. The water then expands to the bigger surface of the paper towel which gets hit by the circulating fans. Faster evaporation of moisture. Just to be sure.
Yes. Ill water tommorow.
I have not watered yet and they seem fine still. The little ones have started to yellow though. I will probably wait a little more. Especially for the little ones because they are stunned too as it seems. The water evaporates so slowly .
Yep. I have learnt my lesson. Why should i move them further though?
I have also moved the humidity to around 64% just to lessen the transpiration rate. Just to make them drink less water and not get worse. Does this make sense? Or should i get it again to 60?
