I'm going in!

Hey everyone! Thought I'd document my little adventures in seed sowing tonight - I've done reading, and I'm as nervous as ever, but there's no time like now to start! My package from the orchid seed bank project came in last week, so tonight I will begin my sowing! I will try to take some pictures of the process as I go...wish me luck!

Some last minute questions-

1 - In terms of seed distribution for dry seed sowing after sterilization, for those of you experienced, in how much water do you have the seeds in when you pour it on top of the medium?

2 - How much seed do you sow per flask? I know it's really dust like - so do you sow a pinch? I don't want to over crowd them.

3. How do you store left over media after reconstituting it with water?

Thanks!
