It is difficult to see if the compost has shrunk much, since it is so dry and powdery on top. However, the cup feels really light, lighter than it was at sowing. Yes, it is definitely time to water.
FIRST WATERING
After boring another hole into the base of the cup, I gave just over 1/3 cup of tap water, then left to drain.
Expect seedlings to really start putting on some growth now as the new cells take up water and expand.
NOT FEEDING YET
To encourage the roots to keep developing, searching the compost for food,
I have not given any more food yet, apart from what was initially in the compost.
BASIL APPEARS
Original Basil seeds are germinating in propagator. Hurray!
None of seeds has done well this week in cool conditions. Expect things to buck up a bit from now on.
