I find I get better germination results doing it this way.

I know that the seed is charged with moisture prior to sowing something I don't know if I just put them directly into compost.

Usually I don't have to water my compost again till after germination.

I have often found that the seed tends to rot off more often when done the 'direct into compost way.

Plus they germinate faster,meaning I can sow later and this is better than having them hanging about in pots awaiting planting out.
