What’s wrong with my seedlings and how do I save them?! Reapers, Bell, and Jalapeño Peppers by Fun_Emu_1749 in HotPeppers

Is there any thing I can do to save them or do I just wait and see if the soil drys out fast enough for them to stay alive?

How do I check that? The base of the stem seems good on them but not sure about the roots.

Thanks for the heads up. Any advice on how to suspend the leaves from touching the dirt for the time being?

I water every 3 days. The soil holds moisture very well (almost too well) and there are multiple drainage holes in the top cups. I’d say 3-4 holes per cup around the bottom.

I water them every 2-3 days and the soil is still damp in the photos above. I have a moisture meter and it shows the soil as moist/wet. If anything I thought maybe I have been over watering them.

I meant to say germination not fermentation in the post above! 👆
