First time growing – trying to catch things early


Hey everyone,
As it is my first time growing peppers from seed I am quite nervous. Sofar germination has been going great on most varieties but I am noticing a couple of potential issues. Some of the leaves are curling downwards and on a couple of leaves I have noticed yellow spots. Any input on what could have caused this are appreciated.
Thanks in advance

    What are the soil and ambient temps? Could be too hot.

    Over watering or poor drainage could lead to curling down leaves on seedlings.

    Ambient temp is 20°C soil I guess similar.
    Over watering could be a issue. I will let it dry out more

    I wouldn’t worry too much as these are just the cotyledons, not even the first set of true leaves. In my experience you can let peppers dry out a bit and they don’t mind at all, better than over watering them.
