No, I use a folded paper towel inside the Ziplock bag and place the seed between the layers so it stays evenly moist during germination.
You can use pretty much any Ziplock bag you like. I just happened to use the black ones because I had them on hand, and they're light-proof, which is a nice bonus.
And you're absolutely right—the strain listed in my diary isn't the correct one. I actually did that on purpose. I need to talk to the Sensible Seeds team because several of their genetics are missing from the GrowDiaries library. In theory, I can add a custom strain name, but that usually causes problems later when the diary needs to be linked to the correct genetic.
Hopefully, they'll add the missing strains soon, as it makes everything much easier.
