Humidity domes for soil blocks

[jbest123]

I was loading the wood bin in the shop today(1/17/2010) and I noticed the humidity dome with soil blocks in it that I had used for a thread about cheap humidity domes on Nov 23, 2009. What caught my attention was all the condensation inside the dome.

Upon inspection the soil blocks were as moist as they were when I made them. That is 54 days without adding any water and I think I could plant seeds in them today and they would go on to sprouting there second set of leaves. I also noticed there was no green scum or noticeable fungi of any kind growing on the soil blocks and the soil was not pasteurized.

Very cool. What are those used for? Do you just put seeds directly into the cubes and then transplant? How would you water/handle that?
