Chow_13answered grow question 3y ago Yep, way to much water, with seeds you only want to water around the base so that the sides can get oxygen to the root system in a small container. You could also poke some holes in the sides of the cups to help promote a healthy root system. I would also drop a few drops of hydrogen peroxide(3%) at the base to help add some oxygen to the roots as you let them dry out. Also if your using a soil that has a slow release of nutrients then having it that wet will releases to much and could burn the root's.
