Make sure the soil is firm and lay sand over or in the rows with seeds, then place a nice wet towel over the layer of sand and seed to keep the seeds moist. After about 5 days check if the seeds have germinated and if they have remove the towel and lightly water

Hi Andre, I tried with a wooden board to keep the soil moist but it dried out too fast as the board got hot!! Your idea sounds better - I'll give it a go.
