Help I think my seeds have dried out! The top layer was wet from the moisture but the bottom was dry as a bone 😭😭😭 It’s a variety of different seeds (and it’s still early ) but there is no signs of life 😭 should I start digging and check ? But I don’t want to disturb them just in case few are still ok

    Is it under a grow light? I’d keep watering and make sure it has good light! What type of seeds are they?

      It is, and I have the heat mat underneath as well. There is a cactus crown mix, monstera, zz and pink splash polka dot. I know zz takes ages to germinate. They all have different soil mix as well. It’s my first attempt to grow anything from a seed 🌱 and I know not all of them will germinate

      Oh, yea succulent seeds are gonna take a while! I grew my albuca spiralis from seeds and it took almost a year until I had actual growth! Just keep them moist and you should be good!

      When I got them it said “ expect 3-4 weeks of germination “ now I know that’s not exact science and “they will germinate when the feel like it 🤣 “ but I do hope some sort of signs of life will start showing soon

      I’m gonna be honest, the best way I’ve germinated any seeds was with a countertop hydro-garden. I have the AeroGarden I got off amazon a few years ago! The grow light on that thing is a beast—it’s never failed me

      Ohhhh now that’s a plant 🌱 grower of my dreams!!!! 😍 I was looking at similar ones a while back, but they are pricey. Oh well Christmas is just around the corner 🤣🫣 might treat myself for an early present hahaha
