    My guess is they are wanting to be fed. How old are they and Approx. how tall? Have you fed yet? How many leaf sets (nodes) are there. Also, if they are a few weeks old they need to be transplanted out of those peat pots. More info necessary from you though.

    Nope, too soon for fertilizing. Glad you got out of the Miricle Grow. He didn't give you different soil with nutes in it did he? Check the bag of soil you just bought and verify for me that there are no added nutrients. Second, I think those peat pots are going to have to go soon. Transplant soon into something bigger that is made out of plastic or clay; peat pots are not great. Good luck.

    Yeah.
    2-2-2 still has nutes in it that are not good for seedlings. Next time get some organic potting soil. This should be free of nutrients by definition.
