Seeds Sprouting...slowly

Two scallions have sprouted and a third is just popping through. The Acorn squash has sprouted and both it and the Delicata are working on their first true leaves. Only one sweet basil seed has sprouted so I'll be adding a few more of those seeds this weekend. I think I'll replant some scallion seeds too. The marigolds seem to just be a total nonstarter. I probably didn't treat the seeds well enough when collecting or something.

When I went to water the flat this morning it looked like the 9-pack of melons and eggplant was only wet to the first 1/8 inch or so. I watered a little more aggressively and what I think is a Charentais seed popped up looking like the day I'd put it in the seedling mix. I made sure to water those few carefully and thoroughly, so hopefully they'll get started germinating soon.
