if you new to growing or in general, you should try this method since it is fool-prove to almost 100%:
For soil start with a jiffy tab and soak it in pH'ed water and let it sit then for an hour. now take some rooting/cloning hormone, about a knife-tip, and treat the center spot with that where the seed will go in a moment. if you done with that place the seed on it and push it in about 1/5" and cover it with some soil. keep this jiffy moist but not soaked from now on.

Same thing is done with a grodan cube.

seed will spruce normally with in less the 4 days, mine so far spruced all within 48h.

that all reduces messing with seeds since more spruces are killed with the act of transfer then you probably guess.
