although its organic MG soils are too hot for Mj seedlings

transplant to another brand of soil, or pre-flush some of your MG soil to leech the ferts from the soil, then transplant

keep in mind most soil you buy contain ferts these days so you wont want to even think about feeding till 4-5 weeks

Miracle-Gro soil is OK, IF you don't add any nitrogen nutes (you should NOT add any nutes the first two weeks of any seedling, anyway) ... the nitrogen is pre-added, to take you all the way to the flowering stage ... (MG soil works, but other choices tend to be better) ... yellowing leaves early in growth is due to either a nitrogen deficiency (not in your case), or over-watering ... over-watering is probably your culprit ... :smokin:

another decent seedling soil is Farfard seedling mix.
I personally use that one. It's a nice texture and not too 'hot'.
Listen to GG and flush.
