Just let them sit and dry out until the top inch of soil isn’t wet. If you want to speed it up you can also CAREFULLY make holes the through the top of the soil (like 2-4) with a pencil. It helps aerate the soil and make it dry out faster, I’ve done it on a few plants and it has never been a problem. And just going forward wait for the soil to become dry on the top inch or so before watering:)

Stop te watering and allow them to recover. Give them a couple days of fully dry soil, a couple (2 days.

Should I wash the potting soil mix before sowing?Going ahead with my first grow. Should I wash the potting mix before to remove impurities and dust particles, before I sow the sprouted seeds inside?

Do you poke holes in ur seedling dome cups?When using plastic cups to dome seedlings (never have so just curious) do you poke holes in the cup for ventilation? I’m aware the point is to help increase humidity during early stages which I’d like, but do they need vent holes?
