I am trying my hand at starting seeds indoors this winter for the 
first time. I bought a Lee Valley seed starter which is insulated 
foam and has a capillary mat that waters the seeds from the bottom. 
And of course it has a clear plastic cover.

I put some kale seeds in a couple of days ago and the first ones are 
poking through this morning. But I am seeing a bit of fuzz on most of 
those heads so I am guessing it is damping off.

Is there anything I can do to save the seeds that have yet to poke 
their heads up? Would taking off the cover help things? I used a 
planting mix of half vermiculite and half milled sphagnum peat moss 
so I thought I wouldn't get this problem.
