Also, spraying or misting seedlings is a common cause of damping-off and can leach what little nutrients the little plants off out of the leaves.

Water them lightly, but frequently, and if you are worried about disturbing the roots or damaging the stems with a strong flow of water, use a cheap diner-style ketchup dispenser instead. If you used nice light soil and have lots of drainage in your pots, and the pots are nice and small, you should not run into water problems with young plants. Don't give any type of fertilizer until the 5th set of adult leaves is unfolding.
agreed 110% ... :thumbsup:
the image reaper Reviewed by the image reaper on . Seedling Watering Ok, I have searched, but havent found a definite answer to how often I should water my seedlings. I dont wanna rot the roots, but I dont wanna dry them out either. Should I just make sure the top stays moist? Is that a good idea? Or should I do the finger test? Rating: 5
