Ok so this is my first time growing with coco coir. I’ve done plenty of research. Most people say to water seedlings everyday, but auto pots tell me not to water so the roots will grow downward. I have been spraying the top every other day with a very little amount of water.
Yesterday I noticed some yellowing. I decided to get them a light dose of cal-mag. This morning there was more yellowing and droopy leaves.

My coco is mixed with perlite and earthworm castings. My light ( MARS TSL 2000 ) is set at 30% and 8 inches above the seedlings. The coco didn’t dry up at all last night

I can only assume the yellowing is from under watering due to the auto pot suggestion.

I’m a bit lost as to what to do. I don’t want to pull them and hoping for recovery.
All in all I e never had seeds grow so slowly, nor can I remember ever seeing this with seedlings.

Any advice would be helpful and appreciated
