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?

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
