I just got done germinating 5 of my seeds and they are ready to be put into pots! I’m using coco coir and perlite. How much do I need to water right now until they sprouts from the medium?
 
It’s not all the way damp I got pre mixed coco and I did put a little be of water in the pots after I put the seeds in. Just wasn’t for sure if I needed to add more water yet or wait until they sprout.

As long as they have the humidity and warmth, they should sprout pretty quick.

It’s 64 in the tent fight now and about 32% humidity do I need more heat in there right now?

A dome will help keep the humidity up and the moisture in till they sprout. I usually do all this on a windowsill so the sun keeps things pretty warm daytime at least. Closer to 70 will help speed things along
 
Okay yeah I thought it should be a littler warmer in there it’s in the basement right now so it’s a bit cooler down there. I have it inside a grow tent and I think I have a small space heater
 
Yeah it is I have it on the bottom of the tent and then it’s on the bottom floor vinyl of the tent. So I should put something under the pots to raise them up? Also doesn’t the light look low enough
 
I always water the soil first until there's runoff then plant the seed because the water can make a channel and carry the seed to the bottom of the pot. Then water again again the soil is dry so the roots spread out and search for water.
 
Yeah I probably should’ve done that first I put water in it first but not to much then just a little bit on top and a little around a where I placed the seed. So should I water it again tonight or just wait till tomorrow to water it? Or wait till they sprout. Also it’s about 64 inside my tent with 35% humidity
 
Just read the last part about the temp, you may want to put a small heating pad in the tent young plants do better in warm, that'll raise the humidity too.
