Seed Drenching
Although the radish seeds have swelled there has yet been no sign of green. They are several days late.
It turns out that although the top of the potting soil has been kept moist, half an inch down it is bone dry. I didn’t expect this in a plastic tray with no drain. Apparently the potting soil is not wicking – perhaps due to the baking we gave the compost to kill pathogens.
Today therefore I gave the seeds much more water than usual in hopes that some will penetrate farther.
