yes we need a pic. and more info. what kind of soil, what kind on nutes, what kind of lights, how old are they? That being said. if you are HID lights the watering should be fine. taking a shot in the dark if they are seedlings and the soil is to hot and you shouldn't feed anything to them for the first 3wk.

ok so the stuff i use is house and garden soil A&B growth enhacer which contains mag cal and nit roots xl and rizo tonic atmi just give them base nutes at 1/2 streanth 3/4 days
 
seedlings that small don't need to be watered for like 2 weeks think about the size of the root base just mist to top soil and plant every once in awhile and dont baby them to much there seeds. u will be fine. just a not a seedling has enough food for the first 2 weeks form its shell

Just a note of caution.....H&G is UREA based and that makes it salty! To get out from under those nutes...When the plants get bigger and you are following the H&G feeding schedule,,,,,,be sure you follow the part that says to water to flow through.....otherwise, even if you use the "worthless" drip through......You will create a soil "brick" that will not take water well and be salty as hell screwing up your plants.....
I've tested H&G in soil for them,,,,,don't think they liked my review much.......Best used for hydro applications!

First time I've heard this! There main selling point is...no salts..?
Well I'll be damned.....They changed away from urea!

Ok,, my bad! I would still use with caution as many still tell me they have "bricking" troubles with this stuff.....in soil....The feeding charts do still list "drip clean" and to flow through......so something is still going on......I also don't like all the damn different feed amounts...to much work and to many expensive additives......

I must admit, I DO like the normal and aggressive charting and the warning about aggressive use....

THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP!!!
