Hi Katie,

Yes, if water is dripping down the inside of the bag, your growing medium is too wet. You should see just a very light mist on the bag. Remove the cover until the medium dries out a bit.

If your âÂÂheat sourceâ is an electric heat mat, you probably should use some kind of cover over the seeds (you donâÂÂt want the heat mat trying to heat the entire room). Otherwise, if youâÂÂre home enough to make sure the growing medium doesnâÂÂt dry out completely, you may find it easier to not even use a cover. Many folks donâÂÂt use covers. Some seeds germinate so quickly anyway, fooling with covers is almost a waste of time :-)

Thanks so much, Art. I appreciate it. I will take the cover off tonight and see what happens.
