Indoor Autoflower AK 47 Maybe overwater

[dlshu3554]

Its on Day 10 and its acting like I overwatered it I checked it with a moister meter and I go about 5 inches down and it says moist not wet or dry.. Im using 3 parts Organic Compost 1 Part Perlite an 1part Vermuculit however you spell it and 2 parts Burpee seed starting mix. Now it could be the Medium Im using just looking for a little help on what im doing wrong.Im using a 65 watt cfl. And my bucket is 1.5 gallons this is my first grow... If I did over water it when it was just sprouted you all think it will recover

Forget the moisture meter. Use the pick up method. It never fails. Pick it up pot is heavy dont water, pot is light water. There is a night and day difference between the two. Yes it will recover. Cannabis does not like to be overly saturated so let it dry some between waterings. Used that method for years and never has failed me.

Yeah It feels heavy I can tell there's alot of water in it.. you think I should Change pots or let it just dry out

Stop freaking out let it be. Youll be fine. When you water you should water till its throughly wet. If you did that fine. Your plants will dry out give it time.

A seedling will take quite awhile to use up the water in the pot as it's doesn't have much of a root structure yet. Once they get bigger you'll see that you'll need to water them more. At the stage they are now at it might be a week or more till you need to water again.
