Maybe it died because you cooked it too long on the barbecue? lol j/k - Bummer man, you would have fewer overwatering/underwatering issues if you started your seedlings in a more appropriate sized container. Better luck next time, good day everyone!
I know exactly what u mean .....mine is 3 and into everything she can beOh by the way I came on here to tell u guys, my daughter took her first proper steps tonight. She walked all the way across the room un aided. My life as I know it is over, so if u notice im missing more than usual u know why lol.
I'm sorry you feel that way, but I'm going to have to tell you that you're wrong then. Unless the plant in that pic isn't as it appears to be, or you're planting in pure poison. There is 100% no way you could overwater that plant to DEATH that QUICKLY. I'm not sure why I replied again, you're gonna believe what you want as its already apparent. Good luck though.i dont know how your going to tell me. when i just told you its from over watering.. its not a guess its what happend.
its dry on top but the soil holds alot of water. iv lost plenty like that the stem just shrivels up at the base from too much moisture and will fall over.. even though the top half will look very healthy and still alive it dies within a day. .

I was going to go on to say that without getting into the why of why he's using 2g pots for seedlings. If you soak the soil in a fresh potting of a plant, seedling, whatever. That is what most people would do when the container is the right size for the plant in the first place. Soak a big pot with a seedling and 99% of the water isn't going to get used at all and hopefully evaporate quickly enough to not turn into funky moss mud in the bottom of the pot. You pick up the pot, it still weighs 15lbs and you don't water it. Well that new sprouts got a root that's only a half inch to start with so if that top layer of soil dries only an inch or so down and bam, your plants dead.Pathogens in soil can cause stem rot, I have seen young seedlings stems rot rapidly, perhaps it was something like that (which can be a by product of overwatering due to the disease thriving in wet conditions, air flow is also going to be a major element in this.....just my 2 cents.
Nice stuff COF, looks like you got a nice selection as usual!
