A few things before I start,
1. These are random seeds, idk strain gender etc..
2. I'm using miracle-gro soil

3. Looks okay maybe? kinda hard to see



So are any of those seedlings alive? & How much water is enough? Also does the size of the container matter after the seeds are germd and ready to be planted.
I'm a first timer grower and this already seems so confusing!

If your using miracle grow soil with germed seeds i would say you fried em. As far as watering just make sure the soil is damp not sopping wet. Next time go with FF happy frog. Good luck dude

Actually check that, get rapid rooters then transplant into dixie cups of happy frog after roots push through the RR plug

Apparently it is a 'decent' medium but not recommended. Miracle-Gro is tailored for people using the medium outdoors and with a hose thus meaning that they come jam packed with nutrients and could be very detrimental on a seed and it's growth.
 
Miracle gro has a seed starting mix it works great for starting seeds . You want to start in small cups like the little styrofoam cups and then as they grow plant to a larger pot .

You can use miricle grow and perlite in roughly a 50/50 for seedlings. Agreed pure miricle grow not reccomended for seedlings, too strong nutes. OP: first one looks dead. Second one is alive, for now... Remember to keep them moist but not drowned, a humidity dome can work wonders on seedlings also (depending on your base RH ofc). good luck!
