keep the seed moist at all times. Once it has sprouted you should keep the soil moist for 7-14 days (daily watering- just a little bit)
Once the tap root is done growing and your plant establishes itsely 10-30 days... you want to cut back on the watering... only water when the top 2-3 inches of your pot/container are bone dry.....
It is easy tp over water you plant when it is maturee... but when it is just a baby you need to make sure that the young tender roots don't dry out...
word
just use a small spraymist bottle and just mist the spot where the seed is so u see like a 1 inch wet spot and all around it is dry. ---Or just drip little drips from a spoonfull of water slowly until the 1 inch spot is wet.--- only water with about a full small spoonful of water every day until its about an inch tall,then give it 2 spoonsfull.Quote:
