Most seedlings seem to making their way through it!

I’m hoping stuff like the radishes can get through though, beans are going gang busters with it though, seems to have helped the peas as well. Generally everything since the tops been kept moist!

I believe we use the cedar bark chunks (the red or brown chunks of wood) to try to keep pest plants from taking root, is the straw to keep moisture in?

Edit: Yay, I was right
