im clearly a noob and i am wondering if once the seed has been germinated when placing it into my growing medium do i water or do i wait or do i water before i place the seed in?

also i am wondering if i should put a cup or saran wrap over the pot once the seed has been place in?

thanks for any info

make sure the soil is pretty damn moist. put your seed in 2-3 cm down cover it up lightly. and water it a tiiiiny bit. i dont use saran wrap but i think ive seen it before.

yeah it takes a few times to get right. at least it did for me. had 2 or 3 failed attempts with a few seeds each time. don't invest too many seeds in your first few attempts at germinating. it's damn easy once you get a technique that works for you though.
