Hey guys I'm new to this I'm from Australia and really hoping on advice, On the 22nd of January I planted 1 Northern Lights blue Auto and one chimp glue auto bought from caveman seeds, straight into the medium I made up that consisted of
• 3 parts peat moss
• 3 parts compost
• 2 parts perlite pre wet
• 1 part vermiculite pre wet in 20L pots

I put plenty of extra drill holes in sides and bottom of pot hoping it would help in drainage and let it dry out before watering again, but the bottom half just won't dry out it stays wet/damp while the top half is really dry, I didnt think I overwatered as I've really tried not to as I've started watrring a little ring around the seedlings once a day a small cup if that, and the inside of the leaves are yellow To and wondering why? The littler one is the chimp glue, Any ideas how to dry out the mix in the pot? And any comments or tips would be greatly appreciated Thank you very much

Thank you very much Chris for the quick reply, yeah I thought as much with it being over watering, such a fine line cause I really don't give them much water, I live in northern Australia where it's 30-35c with high humidity really hot humid conditions would this have a bearing you think? Thanks again
 
If the bottom is wet then it's getting to much water
A plant that size needs very little, like a cup or so, around the edges of the plant to encourage the roots to chase the water
