@LearnHow24 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your appreciation. Yes the seeds need to be covered. One key ingredient for germination is water. If the seed sat in air or an air pocket this reduces the chances of successful germination. Contact with moist soil allows the seed to absorb water.

@ellelee75653 жыл бұрын
Hi. Thank you for this video! This is very helpful. I just have a few questions since I’ll soon be starting my own backyard herb garden: 1. While the seeds are in the propagator tray, do you still water them? If yes, how often? 2. Do I put the covered propagator tray into direct sunlight?
@LearnHow23 жыл бұрын
1. The plastic cover should trap the moisture and keep them moist but keep an eye on the soil and if it starts to dry give it a little water. 2. NO! The heat will cause the water to form steam and boil the small plants. Also keep out of direct sunlight until the plants have several sets of leaves because the tiny roots at the start will not be able to take enough water from the soil to stop the plant drying out and dieing, Good luck with your growing and Keep safe.
