We had the same thought, Sue. If it's damping off, I wish I knew a better solution. In the past, that has been particularly devastating when dealing with tiny, tiny seeds. Too much air circulation and they do desiccate and not enough and they damped off. I usually just planted huge numbers of seeds and usually had enough survive to make up for the many that didn't. That's not a satisfactory solution as far as I'm concerned. It's not enjoyable seeing new sprouts keel over.
