How often do i have to water seedlings? I have a 400w hps above them.. the pots are basically cups.
Could someone tell me the answer plz.
I just generally need ta know how often you would water them.
 
approx every couple of days

when the soil feels dry, throw a little water in. just dont OVERWATER. the best thing u can do is just leave them alone. Come back to them every day to check up, but dont do anything unless u need to water or move the light up
 
Just make sure you don't over water. Every couple of days should be fine. I misted mine with a spray bottle for about the first week or so, on the seedlings and in the surrounding soil. The roots at this point are only about an inch or two long so just make sure the soil immediatley around the stem doesn't completely dry out and you should be fine.
 
I water seedlings every 3-4 days..that being said I don't put them under HPS ... I veg with CFL... What jendice said about misting is right, but try not to spray leaves under HPS or they may burn... roots need to search for water, not sit in it...
Luck..

*watch the light till they're stronger... IMO.
