Seeding leaf turned yellow?

[GreenSwordsman]

I am currently growing two Amnesia haze auto's from ILGM.

1 pot = 3 gallon fabric pot / OF / peat pellet


other pot = 1/2 gallon fabric pot. (Set from a pot 4 pot)


plants are under this light with a 24 - 27 inch distance between them.
watered with pH of 6.5-6.8 after sitting out for days to evaporate some chlorine.

This is 3 days from planting after germinating in water for 24 hours and the seeds have sunk.
I water them with a few spritz just to keep the soil wet.

I think my mistake was putting the seeds in and then watering the soil till run off. (Basically my friend told me to water the soil before planting. Then i find out that i was suppose to water the soil till run off and wait two hours before planting.)

Is there anything i can do to save her?
Thank you for any advice or guidance.

@GreenSwordsman Welcome to AFN.

Yes, leave her alone Most likely she will be just fine.

What you need to learn about watering will come with practice. Here are the basic rules: Never let the soil dry out. Soil and or coco can become hydrophobic if allowed to dry. This means it repels water. This in turn will create dry pockets in the soil and roots there will die. If your soil - coco have accidentally dried out use a surfactant to help re-wet it. I like yucca powder. Don't let soil remain soggy by watering too much too often. Root rot, damping off, molds, fungus gnats and other problems start in soggy soil. When you do water water the entire pot. How to learn when to water starts before you plant the seed. Fill your container with fresh soil/coco and weigh it (heft it) this is the lightest weight and consider it a dry pot. Now slowly water until the soil/coco will no longer absorb the water and run-off begins; weigh the pot (heft it) this is the maximum water, the wettest the pot can get. The difference between wettest and driest is the maximum water weight, for ease of explanation lets just say the water weighs 20 pounds. When the pot loses 10 pounds (half of the water weight) it is time to water again. There is an art to watering.

Thank you!
I am just gonna leave it alone until i feel the soil is dry about an inch deep. I'll definitely practice the weighing technique. I feel like that's something I should master so I don't kill my plants/future plants!
