The best way to do it is: after you water, pick up the pot, note the weight, when the pot gets much much lighter, it’s time to water again. Dont water on a set schedule, water when needed, sometimes its every 2-4 days, sometimes it once a week. Seedlings don’t use much water.

Like @Phytoplankton said the best method is to feel the pot before watering. When you water add just a bit around the plant in a circle, not much, wait a minute or two, then a bit more. Keep doing this until you get just a bit of runoff. If you get runoff right away that doesn’t count, it’s just running out the bottom, very dry soil will resist water at first, it needs to soak a bit. Once you get some runoff lift the pot again and notice the weight, it should feel quite a bit heavier. Once the pot gets light and the top soil is dry you can water again. The soil on top will get a lighter color when dry, but depending on the type of soil it may not be the best indicator, weight works best.

so what i’m thinking is happening “i’m a beginner” and i was told too take the “hull” off because it was stuck and i was worrying but i think the roots didn’t set in enough and it dosent need light right now , just want a better view on this from someone better , it just looks worse on the stem and it hasn’t opend

Leave it alone. There is no hull on that plant. It looks healthy. Now that it's sprouted it needs light.

do you think natural sunlight would be better than a pink light right now for it ? i have a pink light full power about 3 or more feet above it

If you mean a blurple light that is perfect for a seeding. I would wait until it's much bigger before I would put it in full sunlight.

What happened to yesterdays thread? Looks like the same picture before you put holes in the cups as suggested. What part of the picture are you looking to see if it’s safe?

is this safe for my plant?

is this safe and will my plants thrive untill they grow a bit more ? i planned too keep them in there untill they grow just a bit more untill i can see a flower comeing out but i just wanted too make sure this wasn’t harmful
