I'm new to seed germination and just sowed my first batch! I'm using 1020 trays with individual 2-3" pots ...but I'm not sure the best techniques for bottom watering. I've heard someone say they add approx ¾" - 1" of water...let it sit for about 30 minutes...and then drain the tray completely. Draining seems quite tedious with all the pots in there though.

Do you drain your trays after each watering? Or do you just add less water each time? Any detailed advice would be wonderful! (As well as the # of times you typically bottom water per week).

Thanks!
