Thanks Charles for giving renewed hope to my first-time veg growing efforts! It was very disheartening to think that my seedlings were all sick and moribund. I’m glad I won’t need to throw out my newly bought module trays either. Almost everything else I’ve read on the subject advised to discard potentially ‘contaminated’ equipment and bin the compost! As a precaution, I think I might be more careful with ventilation as my south-facing windowsill can get quickly hot when it’s sunny and perhaps also spray chamomile tea on the seedlings from time to time as it’s reputed to held prevent damping off. Oh and takes the lid off the propagator before it steams up too much!
