Looks dry besides a bit in the center
Did you wet the soil before you planted them

Yeah I spray water on them everyday and I watered pretty good before I left, maybe I overwatered? In the middle of the sprout it's all shriveled up

You think my other seedlings will be okay? I used the same bag of soil on all of em

It's your watering practices, not soil

Yes lay off the water,those are gone imo. Seedling that size gets a thimble full every couple days,once a day tops

Oh okay I see, I basically rotted the stem with too much water then. You think the other ones are gonna be fine if I watered them the same amount today?

Yeah I pulled the goner out and put a new seed in there already, the same soil shouldn't effect the new seed would it?
