        <![CDATA[ I planted some purple sprouting broc seeds last week in the propogator, in Arthur Bowers seedling compost, mixed with vermiculite and put them in the heated
propogator on a sunny windowsill.  I have watered them lightly since and checked them regularly. On checking them this morning I noticed the seedlings had come
through and they were all white and furry ... damped off! 


Everthing was cleaned, and the compost and vermuculite were both new.


Why has this happened? Any ideas? ]]>

			<description><![CDATA[ The rule of thumb I work  with  for seeds is;
<br>
<br>
If the packet says &#39; sow directly into the bed&#39; or words to that affect, then this means they don&#39;t require too much heat to germinate 40°-50°F (
4°-10°C) should be enough.
<br>
<br>
Higher heat often ends up with very fast germination,and leggy plants that are more susceptible to disease as you have found.
<br>
<br>
If the seed are half hardy they will require &#39;highish heat&#39; e.g. 65°F+ (18°C+) as a general... ]]></description>

They didn&#39;t need a propagator so they might have been too warm
