I am just a curious person! Understanding what you do in these situations educates me.

Do keep any dome propped up to allow for good air circulation. I've seen more folks bake their seeds/seedlings to death than I'd like to admit happens/

When you said you buy seed do you mean you're an SSE member and request seeds from the Yearbook or do you mean that you buy seeds from the PUBLIC SSE catalog/also online?
