Most seedlings seem to making their way through it!

I’m hoping stuff like the radishes can get through though, beans are going gang busters with it though, seems to have helped the peas as well. Generally everything since the tops been kept moist!

Some does yeah, I can’t keep the top as moist as I would like with the watering restrictions though.

We get really bad gusts, otherwise I think it would be fine.
