So I’ve grown some succulents from seed—more by luck than anything else. The cactus and lythops seeds I planted at the same time refused to come out. I followed the instructions carefully, but I think perhaps I shouldn’t have covered them because they grew mold even though I wiped away the condensation on the plant domes. Does anyone have any insights? Thanks ahead of time! 🙏🏼

    I grow a lot of dragon fruit from seed (cactus). And I know they are very slow growers and like moist, not wet, soil as they are young. So I would water a little bit more. Also they do like the greenhouse dome. It keeps their soil moist. But with the dome if it is just around them try not to overwater.
