Having never really popped seeds properly, this process went well. I put my seedling mix into a 5-gallon bucket. I added 1 electric kettle worth of boiling water. I mixed it with love and added a few shots of hot water to get it to what I wanted. Loose cake mix is all you need really. I filled my trays, packed them down, top them off then planted 2 seeds per hole of everything except beans. They were big so I only did 1 seed per cell.
I also never really bottom watered and would always splash my seeds around (that is what I did last year). My first-time bottom watering was kind of annoying because I did not notice that the cells in my seed starter were still stuck together.
I also reconfigured my wyze cam. Now it's in the grow tent right at perfect level. Hopefully I can get some good snaps of the plants once they germinate.
