What are sypmtoms of overwatered seedlings?

OK. anybody else have this problem? just wondering. I mean I have learned my lesson now, Just hoping the ones I overwatered stay alive. I am just going to let the soil dry out as much as possible and then give them alot less water.
I overwatered them by soaking the soil in the cup in water until it drained out the bottom and then I put the germinated seeds it, it seems the soil close to the bottom of the cup is still barely moist and it has been 7 days.
DO THE LEAVES START CHANGING COLORS ON THE END TOO WHEN THEY ARE OVERWATERED? iT IS JUST THE FIRST SET OF REAL LEAVES THAT HAVE GREW ON THE PLANT

I am getting just really down on myself and getting so frustrated and all i think about at work alot is how to get the plants to grow right. I cannot seem to get the watering down. This is my second grow, my first grow went great. I don't know what is wrong, it sucks ass!!

dont get down about it man. its only ur second grow, mistakes are bound to happen. have they actually come through the surface yet? use a spray bottle when they are small bro and spray untill the top layer of soil is moist.
I actually just started the spray method on the 4 white widow new seeds I planted last night. The other six I planted last week are still alive, I am going to start using the spray method on those too after the soil dries out more and they start to look like they need water. So we will see, thanks for replying to my thread.

over watering causes droopy leaves. the brown tips are something else. try

I have been using BioBizz LIght mix soil and 6.6 PH water, so I do not know what could be wrong, it is like 2.5 weeks old, it looked good the first week and then it got these redish brown small spots on them and from then the tips of the leaves started changing and it had them moved in and now those leaves look bad. Is it possible that root rot could cause that? Or lack of oxygen to the roots????

Those tips look more like nute burn than overwatering. Also just be aware that spraying water on the seedlings while providing water through absorbtion through the leaves can lead to underdeveloped root system due to the plant not having to search for water....just something to be aware of.

i started germination about 5-6 days ago and this is either 3rd or 4th day in pot, i think 3rd. what about yours?

I have 5 that are 3 weeks+ old and about 14 others that are ~10 days old. I've also got another 15 seedlings which I put in dirt last night. I think they show signs of being underwatered when the leaves go straight and "pray" towards the light. Overwatering to my understanding is shown somewhat when the entire leaf is droopy from the stem towards the tip, curled downward.
Hey SomeBeech, this is how most of my seedlings turn out after two weeks of growing, they get these brownish color dots close to the tip of the leaves, you can see it in this pic and then from there is like the rest of the leave starts dying and drying up like the pics up above I showed.
