Gosh. So much delicate work :)
I don't get this part "I needed the tissue to see where I was placing the seeds in the dark compost".
You place another tissue on the compost???
Anyway, I've only soaked really big seeds, like tree seeds, hibiscus also.
Now that I am trying Alpine plants from seeds, these are usually tiny so I just spread them on the surface and sprinkle water (can't call it mist, cause I don't have good one, I may have to buy a really nice "mist-er")
One more question to the seed-sowing gang. I got a lot of condense (water drops on the plastic foil that I covered the pots with).
Is that something good?
About once a week I take some of the pots, lift the plastic cover, give it a shake and turn it upside-down (with the dry side in).
But I don't know if I should do that. Would this reduce the moisture inside the pot?
But maybe there's too much of it, and it's a good thing.
No idea...
