SweetJBanswered grow question 5 years ago Hello!
Once the seedling has developed some inches of root, what I like to do is open a small hole on the medium with a pen, not very deep, place the seed with the little root facing down, cover it with some medium, and then water gently, very slowly.
If you water hard it will probably take more time for the seed to sprout, as it will need to grow more to reach to the light.
