Ok....I am a newbie.... I have my seeds planted waiting for germination... I decided to try the Christmas lights in non clumping kitty litter...in a tub....
It's warm and getting lots of condensation inside the plastic lids... This is good....right?

Do I open the lid daily to check and make sure the soil is good and moist?

How often should I water them?

Can I use my digital meat thermometer to test soil temps?

I know once they start to sprout up...I need to remove those from the bottom heat and put them on the shelf under top lights....

At what point do I need to remove them from the little cups of seed starting mix....and transplant them into some other kind of soil?
What kind of soil should I transplant them in?

I didn't have any thing to stick in the cups to write in lol...so I used colored straws etc to mark each plant and I have a list with all my info written down....

Next time I plan to think ahead and get something better 😃

Info and tips are greatly appreciated for this newbie!
