Hey, I don't think that the seeds need a soak before sowing them. A dedicated pot would be best as removing them from the plant already there would be difficult. What species are they?

Chopped Sphagnum moss you could use your sword ;P Sunny place good ventilation but high humidity or not they'll mold

i allway's spray 1 a week for the first 6 weeks with a fungicide. It keeps the molt away.

I think if you use really good quality sphagnum moss to sow them on you should not have mold problems. I sow my Nep seeds on pure sphagnum moss in a clear cup and cover with a cap. So far no problems with mold

I am growing in a fishtank with a 15 w growlux light. Maybee the circumstances in Holland are differend. If i don't spray I get molt in 15 day's
