Filmnet, I had encountered the problem before adding any fert, and it's just been one half-strength dose of kelp/fish. I wasn't planning on any more fertilizer for at least a month. Folks are suggesting even less, and I'll follow the advice.
Now I have been watering from the top with a baster to evenly spread. There are 40 seedlings all crammed into my grow room, and time is somewhat short with a new kid and a busy job. Were I to bottom water every plot, it would take hours transferring them out to the garage and back. If I am very diligent about watering the plants only when they need water, is there any major disadvantage to top watering over bottom? I realize, it does mean that one can more easily over-water.
Thanks,
