I would cut back on spraying them and get something in the soil to hold moisture longer. maybe a lil more vermiculite to hold water longer.
The best thing to do with plants in any soil mix is to DO LESS, by not over feeding, by soil or foilar sprays. Wait to water untill the plants tell you they need it. signs will be droopy lower leaves at first that work their way up the plants.
In your case i would straight water and wait.....then see what your plants are showing you.

Yes it is in possible to burned if you do that before! I dont know about you soil mix. Maybe in there are too much nutrients for start, I dont know really. I know all of they components but not in one soiland proportions like have you. but each grow diferently.
How long you grow this is your first grow? How call your seeds? Maybe you can keep grow greenhouse and after then keep grow outside if still keep growing greenhouse that be should better. Its summer! where you are from? South europe? if in south europe east side then better growth vegatation period in to the outside. More then moisture which is good! Not like west europe summers are dried usually.

@lilmafia513 I think my soil actually holds to much water toward the bottom of the pots because the top seems to dry fast but bottom always damp... im thinking next time for seedlings just peat moss,perlite,vermiculite... then when transfer to bigger pots the worm castings and spray on nutes

About led lights I dont know! I know Led light where dominate blue light for vegetation is the best lamp for plants! And I know Led lamps are usually keep closer. Not like MH or HPS like I use. But you should to check warm! Over the plants and under the light put hand. If feels to warm then put light higher!

here is about Led lights

they are probably drying out on top due to the root zone being higher up in the pots, the roots need to stretch to the bottom of the pots, so they can grow and reach nutrients. let them dry untill they need the water.the plant will show you its thirsty. lights i would leave alone untill you fix the soil issues

i never water untill i can pick up the pot and it feels very light, which means no more moisture to weight it down. then the plant will still look healthy. hours after watering they perk back up and almost lift them selves out of the pots...:)

so basically let my pots completely dry ?? u think putting them outdoors in sunlight might help dry them out faster and what signs do i know when water is needed or its dried out enough besides it being lighter

Reduce watering ,feed them hydro veg nutes and use pro coco mix only next time, you cant just throw a mix together without experience and expect it to work. This coco is made for growing dope

signs they are ready for a drink are droopy leaves. the fan leaves should be straight out from the main stalk or higher when she is good on moisture. when the soil gets dry they will drop lower and appear to be dry.

Thats right with this sort of coco mix you only use hydro nutes every watering ,no ph adjustment and no guessing, quite simple really with amazing results. Dries in about 3 days med size pot. The mix/feed with no guessing have the plants healthy so the consumption is high and fast. Also to get the best out of it use hid lighting with cooltubes if that's within your budget. you can run 2000w without ringing alarm bells.
