When y'all try to sprout seeds do you cover with plastic wrap? I've had success doing it with plastic wrap but also had success doing it without so curious what others do.

My cheapass seed starting trays come with a plastic dome cover and I use that. As soon as I see sprouts I take off the cover, turn off the heat mat, and turn on the lights. The dome means if I'm a bit slow to notice the sprouts aren't pushing against plastic.

I used to leave the cover on with the vent open but found it stayed too wet too long.

The main advantage of the plastic is it makes it easier to keep the soil continuously moist. They don't need a cover if you keep the soil moist, and obviously seeds sprout outside without any sort of cover.

It may seem obvious, but in my experience partners value trial experience over anything else, so get it however you can. For example, my firm will favor a former prosecutor who has seen the courtroom a lot but has no civil litigation experience (not even a depo) over a seasoned associate who has only second chaired cases with a partner but hasn’t tried a case. Even trying a case and losing gives you credibility at my firm because you still did it.
