[quote=Forwhat420]Hey there Opie, You are right you can drench the soil. I really don't have a problem with it. I just said it because he has a problem with mold growth. It just depends on how fast the soil dries out... I just tend to water directly where the seed was placed enough to give the seed what it needs to germinate. Then by the time it gets its first set of leaves another just enough watering.
Ah, I see. That makes sense if you don't want to use a fan. I guess I never really thought of trying that.

Other than that those other "germination" methods are just playing games. Weed seeds fall of the plant into the soil in its most natural state, so why not just place it into the soil?
Darn tootin'. Each to his own, and you gotta do what you gotta do, but for me the KISS method is a goal, and all that other stuff is just extra steps. It makes no difference if you keep em warm and moist in a paper towel, or glass of water, or dirt, or jo mamma, they will sprout if they're good seeds.
