Bottom watered until nicely wet, about a liter per two, given 250ml of cropsalt veg in the bottom as well, just to get some nutrients soaking in.
They're in my veg-4x4 which is kept at 0.8 vpd permanently. The room is enriched with co2 for my flower tents right now so are probably experiencing 1300 ppm or so.

Checked on em, added some water, just ensuring the bottoms of the containers about a cm of water after they soak up a bit has been my typical strategy. Gotta be somewhere around a 3/4 liter per container. My watering hose thingy (third pic in album) is a 1/4 RO line with a button valve that shoots a pretty consistent liter per 30 seconds or so so so I count and get a feel for how much I've added. No sprouts quick enough to show through the soil day one it appears. As if, hah.

Full germination appears to have happened, they're beginning to poke above soil at about 85 hours, or 3 days 13 hrs.
March 13th - 100% germination observed about 85 hrs after planting.
Now at the time I'm updating it's about 100 hrs since planting. They're all about a half inch tall and looking happy.
I took the seed cups off about 9 hrs ago and dropped vpd down to 0.6 starting the day with 150ish ppfd.
I gently helped #7 shed it's seed coat, was the only one which had some issues getting unstuck.
Just now I raised ppfd to 180.
Right now it's march 21st, #2 and #7 have been failing a lil, I don't think they'll make it. #2 looks dead dead rn, and #7 is going the same way. Unclear what I did wrong, maybe overwatering? The other 8 have been happy enough.
Occasional feeds of cropsalt to the bottom, 200-400ml each go.
