Saving Seedlings From Damping Off

For new gardeners and old, keep an eye on your seedlings for damping off, a mildew problem associated with damp soil at the base of seedlings and below the soil level.
 
This year I was given a quantity of small square pots that fit in a 10 cell tray, but little did I know these would be a curse for me, losing almost everything grown in them as they don't drain well enough for seedlings.
 
I've dusted some remaining seedlings with Cinnamon to try and save a few.
