Your EC is too high especially for seedlings....if your using them on the seedlings now then most likely your going to burn the roots or even worse kill them.

Lower the ec down to 0.5 to 0.7 for seedlings and 0.7 to 1.2 for vegging plants and over 1.2 when in flower.

Dont follow the labels on the bottles as the are grossly over estimated....go by the way your plants react....

Hope this helps
