If they start to appear dry, sprinkle jsut a FEW DROPS of tap water on them until they look like they did in the bag- keep a few in a sealed ziploc (we all have those lol) to compare moisture levels for your reference.
Ha . . . oops :wtf:

Did that last night. I didn't soak them for too long, but it looks like they soak up water pretty fast. I put the seeds right into the little hole and misted the top with a light kelp solution which is something I usually do for seed germination with my trusty sponge method.

Hopefully that won't cause a problem, but if so I have 100's of seeds from this line anyway, so it'd be more sad to lose the 10 plugs. Maybe I will give them a little squeeze tonight just to make sure they don't have too much water in them.

Funny, seems like every piece of technology I add only complicates the process a bit more. Hopefully the end result of all this will prove worthwhile (no real doubts that it will)
