chelle said:One thing about starting seeds in sealed containers though, I do start gradually exposing the sprouts to more air and light as soon as I see them pop up.


Me too! This is a must if you want less leggy seedlings. If the first couple seedlings have emerged, the other seeds have absorbed enough water to emerge also, whether they do it soon after or weeks after. You don't need to worry about keeping everything extra moist (with everything enclosed) to prompt more germination.
