I am growing tomato seedlings on the windowsill in 9cm pots in general

How much water do they need?
And how often?
And do you put the water in the tray and let it soak up into the pots?


Make sure that you don't over water, only water when the compost gets
dry. On no account leave them standing in water in the trays.


I am concerned not to over-water.
Do you just look at the surface and see if it's dry?
There are eight 9cm pots in a tray.
Does a litre added to the tray each week sound about right?
(I'm trying to get a feel for how much is typically needed.)
