Would the humidity also impact the germination as much ? I would assume it's wet enough in the soil to not matter
Yes a soil too moist can stall a seed from germinating the tap root can come out and then just sit there rotting if too water available, you want just enough to keep it alive but go searching for more and cold soil can imo affect it even more and also I find keeping the seed in the dark until its an inch above the soil helps keep the stress low
Once the first set of leaves appear the plant will want to drink from the surrounding air as the roots are not developed enough to sustain quick growth so I recommend a minimum of 65%+ humidity for seedlings but higher the better
And now I even start autos in small party cups as its just easier to gauge how much water it's getting
And try not to water on the stem but inches away so root go searching
These are just my findings fella since growing in soil for some years
