Any of you had to deal with this?
I got two packets of Echinocereus seeds, hardy ones. Planted both in a plastic container, half-half.

One of the two kinds germinated nicely, the other one slower. For a long time, there was ZERO germination in one half of the container.
What I did was I kept watering.
Seeds need moisture, right?

I could see the seeds looking great, but lazy.

After a while, I saw one seed germinate, then another, and so on.
Problem is, I also got moss in the container.

DILEMMA: stop watering - the rest of the seeds won't germinate.
keep watering - will this moss hurt the little seedlings?
