Lemme hit you all with a quick question. Say your bean is in the soil, watered in and cozy like. Do you all wait for a sprout to kick on the lights or vise versa? I noticed that, even though I've got a little clear cup over where my seed is, the rest of the soil is drying out with the quickness. Any thoughts? How do you do it?
I place a cup over the bean to reduce evaporation , the area around soil that is not covered will dry out faster of course, but you do not need the whole pot watered, Just the area where the bean is...a spray bottle here and there to keep soil moise. Although, you do not need light to get the bean to sprout...I leave it on to keep soil warm.
