Do you spray them Bren so they don't dry out?

Danny I put a piece of damp kitchen roll in the base, dropping the seeds on top then putting a  lid on prevent the seeds from drying out.  
It seems to work out fine.

Thanks Bren that's what I've done

Sowed some French Marigolds and Knautia Macedonica

Sowed some sunflowers and dwarf sunflowers. Noticed my nasturtiums are making an appearance in their modules.

Sowed Sprouts Crispus and Calabrese monclano

Sowed celeriac indoors and carrots outdoors. Probably need to sow more beetroot, as the last lot weren't great - they were in some of that bad batch of Moorland Gold compost, before I found out it was not great.

Todays sowings.
Beth Alpha and Masterpiece cucs
Then courgettes
Romanesco
Black Beauty
All green bush
Tondo di Piacemaza

Today I sowed:
Squash - zephyr, honeyboat, crookneck, pattison gagat, tromba
Courgettes - Diamante, Verde di Milano, atena polka, Bianca trieste, all green Bush.
Cucumber - Beth alpha

Sowed six modules of Courgette and four modules of cucumbers. This was last years seed so sowed what i had and some of the modules got two or three seeds.These went into the propagator.

Potted on a dozen annual chrysanths into modules.
