Hello, I have some Viking amp x Viking hook seeds sprouted, I was wondering if there’s any good read of advice that would be helpful to ensure a better chance of survival for these seedlings, this is my first time growing from seed and I know it’s a long process but I’m excited to better my experience in growing these plants, thanks.

use of humidity dome over a 1020 tray or the container you use would be a good idea. One they start sprouting, I recommend carefully separating them. If you leave them all together (and there are enough of them) they will block precious light from one another, stunting their growth.

read my post on this thread, to see photos of what I mean.

I started them in sealed bags, so my question is could the humidity be too high in the bags and hinder their development due to high humidity (too high) and not enough circulation ? I now have a somewhat vented humidity dome over top since reading this though they haven’t been under it long enough to see any differences to compare.

High humidity is not a problem as long as there is good ventilation. I find they grow larger in high humidity.
