Everyone has been so patient with my little threads with basic questions, and I hope the group can indulge me again.
After following the excellent collective advice of the group, I have nearly 100% germination. Seedlings are up and some are open with leaves. Basically poked above the surface 24 to 36 hours ago and are under fluoros and a light fan breeze.
I started with what I believe to be a properly moist Promix, and have only been misting the tops of the Promix.
Now that roots are being rapidly established, I'm wondering when to water a bit more aggressively. I've killed my share of seedlings from damp-off so I'm very concerned.
Is there a rule of thumb? Like when serrated leaves appear? I plan to leave them in Promix for 1 week before transplanting into prepared soil (not hot).
Thanks for any opinions.
