Help! somehow over watering tomato plants

6 years ago

I am new to gardening and am growing tomatoes from seed indoors. The plants had been growing really well, but I've noticed a slow decline in their health. I knew that over watering is the culprit of many issues, so I have always tried to wait until the soil is almost completely dry to water. Could I inadvertently be overwatering by waiting this long? I water from the bottom and they suck up a lot of water each time. The plants have shown signs of edema and are now very droopy even when the soil has mositure. I've also has some of the bottom leaves turn yellow and some have even turned dry and dead. attached are some pictures. They are also still in a seed starting mix and i plan to transplant them to bigger pots today with some good soil mixed in. I've been using a fish and seaweed fertilizer about once every 8 days at half strength. Please let me know your thoughts!
