I have a few questions about growing my outdoor bagseed plants. They are my first grow and i have some doubts and some questions. First ill let you know a bit about what im starting with (which isnt much)

I germinated about 14 seeds (not sure) and i had to leave town so they germinated for 7 days. Quite a few of the seedlings shed their seeds casing before i even planted them exposing what i think is the cotyledon. I planted them all on 4/20 (burying the cotyledon about a half inch or more) and all of the healthy looking seeds are already spouting 2 little baby leaves.

Heres the questions part:

I planted them in the blackest soil i could find in the area because i didnt have the ability to find potting soil. What is the probability of my plants doing well? Or even surviving?

The soil becomes sort of hard especially after I water, but i keep rolling the cups in my hands to break it up. How bad is it to have hard soil?

Ive been using a pond close to my spot to water. The water is a typical Florida pond: Greenish water with a little algae (avoidable) that i wouldn't drink if someone paid me 50 bucks. Is this unhealthy for the plant?

Any creative advice for animal protection?
