HYB: Prevent Seedling Rot


Prevent Seedling Rot!  Never!  I see a couple of recent posts on keeping the
little fellers well-watered.  I try to, but unlike the adults I don't get
much rot in the babies.  I think the fans are too small for the outer leaves
to open and hold water, so even overhead watering seems okay for the babies.
And if not, I just rationalize my abusive behavior by caliming to be taking
a Darwinistic approach.  I didn't pay $45 for that one; if it rots so easily
it needs to be pampered (as many intros do), I'd never ask anyone else to
pay $45 for it either.  So kill a few, and anything worth keeping will
survive; and I won't need as much room or time to line out my seedling when
they move from the trays (currently the biggest plastic things 4" or more
deep that I can find at 99Cents Only Store).
