Default First time grow - need advice/help urgent!
Hi everybody, my seeds sprouted about 12 days ago. I'm using Miracle gro soil, and some rocks for drainage.
The grow have been good so far until a few days ago, my plants started getting yellowish and losing kind of losing their color. One of them as you will see in the picture is getting brownish (#5). Are they dying? What can i do to save them?. I got myself a Miracle gro "Pour and Feed" Plant food, on the back the specs says its .02 - .02 - .02, will this be any good for feeding them?. Anyways my soil it is supposed to feed them for 3 months so I don't think it has anything to do with that. Need some help, thanks in advance!.

3 month release is strong for seedlings.... so overwatering is a problem, because it can cause nute burn..... so watering for drainage is a no-no with 3 month release in the beginning because you're releasing a lot of nutes and seedling don't need nutes for the first 3 weeks.... Nutes for veg should have a high N and a low P and the K should be higher than the P..... something like 24-8-16 is reasonable and thats Miracle Gro all purpose plant food...

Looks like overwatering. Take a pen or pencil and poke some holes in the soil about 1&1/2" away from the plant about 2" deep. This will help the soil dry and allow some oxygen to reach the roots. Refrain from watering for 2 days or until the soil has dried noticeably. When planting seeds, moisten the soil initially before planting and then just use a mist bottle as needed to keep the top layer of soil moist. Seedlings can drown very easy but, as they grow they will become more forgiving.

Good luck!
