Hey all!
So i am a beginner to growing vfts from seed, i have grown plants successfully before, but this is my first time growing them from seed. I got my seeds fresh from a well known seller (so i know these are not fake ebay type seeds) and i planted them in pure peat (i understand its better with silica or perlite mixed in, but i couldn't seem to find any in time).
Today is their sixth day being planted (or rather scattered on the surface) and today i noticed some fungal growth on multiple seeds. It appears to be two types: one (the most widespread) a white fuzz on the pointed part of the seeds (has affected about 7 out of 30), and the other a sort of grayish tower sticking out of the peat in random spots (about 3 points where this has happened). I have no idea what i should do, i have taken there lid off (though i was fanning them about three times a day) to decrease humidity hoping to get rid of it like that, but i can't seem to find anything online as to what i should do (only what i should've done at the beginning). Any thoughts!
I can give more detailed information after if needed, thanks in advance!
