OK, wild. Our lettuce/kale seeds in the starter trays are germinating *after two days*. The packets suggest that it would be 7-14 days at least.

@ShaulaEvans 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️ I put the seeds in a starter container. The tray is suspended inside the container so that water can drain and the air is trapped to retain moisture. Spritzing daily, and an LED plant lamp. That's what I have...but who knows, maybe Jupiter was ascendant and that's why.

@ShaulaEvans Good luck! All the gardening experts I know tell me to just keep on experimenting, eventually it'll work out.

@derek That's a beautiful set-up!
Hmm. One of the few factors I haven't optimized yet for my plants is humidity -- my home is super dry. You've got me wondering if I shouldn't spritz my plants one or twice a day. I'm clearly going to need to experiment with this. Thank you!
