gotta leave em alone...Hi fellow growers! this is my thread here
I really need a guidance from all of you experts.
I used to have 4 seedling, but I stupidly spray fertilizer onto it and in less than a day they all dried up. I quickly flush them with a lot of water, but sadly only one survive. it survive only from 2 half dried leaf.

as day goes by I notice that the leaf is turning from dark green to lime green as you can see.

new leaf still grow, but it should not grow this slow.
what I understand from reading some of the thread is that my plant is lacking of nutrients.
so yesterday I try to dilute this fertilizer with a lot of water, as I am afraid to kill the seedling for the 2nd time.View attachment 3372374
this is also the fertilizer that kill the other 3 seedling as I sprayed my seedling before.
from the problem that I have, what do you guys suggest on what should I do?
Best bet w/ seedlings imo is to just dial in your temps / humidity, use a decent medium and stick w/ straight water for a while (and sparingly...moist but not soaked)...them ninjas got food already...thts what the cotyledons are 4 (stored food reserves from seed / provide initial photosynthetic ability for production of new food/starches to develop the plant beyond seedling stage). Before they have developed a decent root system and more mass above ground, they really don't need much, if any, external sources of food/energy to sustain life or growth...Beyond a light source and some water, they don't want anything from you - especially not a foliar feed / fertilization.
