Experment Update
It’s going quite fine just have to water it every day the Pots with out the Mini Greenhouse cover need watering every day, as the soil doesn’t feel moist but the one with the greenhouse cover i reckon i could get 2 days with out watering it. The seeds Still havent Emerged yet, keeping a close eye on them as soon as they come up ill take a photo.

good job VG. When they have heat under them they do tend to dry out quickly.
