Do not feed any nutes untill it grows more leafs and stems. You have to wait for roots to grow to have good nutrient intake later. Remember to always check your ph (5.8-6.5)

I don't have liquid to adjust the ph. I am giving a natural mineral water.Is it ok ? Is it possible to overwater my plants?

that soil is too strong for seedlings, ya have to wait to feed any nutes until it had used up the nutes in the soil. next time go with a seed starting soil in a small planter until it is large enough to handle that soil.

Ph up and Ph down and the little drops are fairly cheap. I used to use baking soda and vinegar i strongly advise against it.

its very possibly to over water. his soil doesnt have any nutes to begin with so he DOES need to add some, just not as much, and not untill the seedling need it... if you can even consider a 4 month old plant a seedling... tho it looks like one

refer to the 2d pic on original post, german fertilizer, it is not a soil less mix, it has nutes in it, it says so. Just doesn't give the values.
