I have 5 small trays of seeds in my spare room, they sit on a large tray so do I water them from the top or put water in the tray so they take it from the bottom?

Suggest re potting these in individual pots as it’s still too cold to plant outdoors .

I'd pot them on too.
Then, when it's a bit warmer, you could acclimatise them by putting them out in the day and fetch them in at night.

Picture to check I’ve done them right!!

Oh - you did.
?
I should rtwt!
Putting them outside when it's warmer will help harden them off.

This is my touch box in my sensory garden, is there anything else you can suggest to put in here?!!!

Scentia How about adding an ornamental grass or two. They are lovely to run your hands through. Pennisetum villosum has lovely fluffy heads.

Alliums or chives make lovely pom pom flower heads which I can never resist touching.
