Am I to take off the top off the peat pot top now that I have sprouts? The other seeds I started are in paper cups then put in freezer baggies, they have small sprouts as well ....do i remove them from the baggies? I thought you keep them in the baggies because it keeps the soil moist and the baggie stays wet? HELP ME PLEASE

I always remove baggies, lids, domes, etc after the seeds sprout. Or at least find a way to prop them open a bit, otherwise it's an invitation for fungus.

I suggest removing them from the baggies and prop or take the lid off once sprouts appear or thet may wilt and die off from too much moisture

I also always take off the lid once my seeds have sprouted, and have never had trouble too much moisture or damping off this way.
