Bean Chitting

Question

I am a beginner gardener, and this year I am focusing mainly on vegetable plants being grown in containers. I am chitting my beans at the moment. I have found all of the information I need to start this; however, I do have one question. After I have sprayed the paper with water to damp it, do I need to keep moistening the paper when it dries out, or do I just do it at the start like I have until I plant them?

Answer 1

Keep the paper wet. It is easiest to place the wet paper and seeds in a plastic zip top bag. This will keep the paper from drying out too fast.
