I have seedlings in jiffy pucks that I have been letting completely dry out(well almost completely) between waterings. Plants look healthy for the most part but with everyone saying that overwatering is the number 1 first time growers mistake, I am getting paranoid that I too am going to make this mistake. I let the pucks become very dry between waterings and when I water I give them a good soak. The pucks are all squeezed into very small black pots that are just big enough for a jiffy, and with a drain-hole at the bottom of the pots. I water until I have a bit of runoff coming through the pots and then I dont water again until they are good and dry.
Is this the way to do it? Or should I only water until the pots are moist and not go as far as creating run-off? I will soon be transplanting into coco so hopefully I wont have to worry about overwatering once they in coco
