Started tomatoes and peppers in my starter box a few weeks ago. Peppers are fine but the tomatoes not so much. Can anybody tell me what's going on here?

Tomatoes don't like being wet, so you have to take care when watering. Shouldn't be misting or spraying them, just water their soil directly. Also make sure there is good airflow around them.

They get 15 minutes on 30 minutes off with the fans. I have been misting them though.
