Erde weiterhin flächig leicht befeuchten, damit sie nicht hydrophob wird. Und dann zusehen und staunen 😜! Gutes Gelingen!

use an appropriately sized pot - small for seedlings. fully wet, do not superficially irrigate. this is never a good idea. using a finger, compress a hole about 1/2" deep. This pretty much eliminates possibility of seed falling further into substrate if appropriately fluffy and airy. i don't want to water while it germinates, so i use a dome to trap moisture. After it sprouts, i'll do a 2nd irrigation when the top starts to dry. irrigating can shift things around or expose delicate growthtip to things that might damage it. it may be low risk, but easily avoided. again, never half-water. always fully saturate. if this simple process ever causes a problem, it is indicative of a poorly constituted soil. Not doing so will cause a drying pattern that trains superficial roots or causes dry pockets in the substrate where nutrients can build up from ebb/flow of evaporation. roots won't grow into the dry areas, either. Roots physically turn toward greater moisture - baked into how they grow. in summary, keep it simple. fully irrigate properly, make a hole, loosely cover and gently tamp down.... all there is to it. Don't use a full-size pot. Ise a 2-3" seedling starter pot. Potting up as the plant grows will develop a better root system. Unless incredibly belligerent, you will never cause shock from potting up. Gently placing it in a larger pot and covering it with more substrate should never be stressful, lol. Don't use the G.I. Joe Kung Fu Grip (tm) and you'll be fine.

Hey 👋 Da hat jeder so seine Methodik… ich hab mich durchprobiert, und find bislang das keinen im Tuch am besten. Wichtig: kein Wattebad, damit machst du die Wurzelhaare kaputt. Die Keimung direkt im Substrat hab ich persönlich noch nicht probiert… ich beobachte aber auch gerne das wurzelqachstum
