Well, I didn't lose even one seedling to damping off or anything else for that matter. It was peculiar though, when I went to transplant the seedlings, I found two toadstools growing on the capillary mat. Just plain weird. My brassicas are now ready to go out to the cold frame, yeah!.

I have never had issues with Miracle Grow potting soil and yes, sometimes I cut it with peat as I think it has too much fertilizer in it.

I have decided to be more discriminatory about what seeds I plant in the Park's Bio domes, they really need to have about the same growth rates. Brassicas should be kept in separate domes from slower sprouting plants as in celery and parsley. And Lisianthus will always get it's own from here on in!

My celery sprouting was pretty lacking in uniformity (different brands?) and I will use an icing spatula instead of the little prongs shove up from the bottom as their root systems seem to be finer.
