How do I tell? I planted lettuce, beets, onions, chard, and carrots. A lot of tiny seeds. Then the next day it rained, and rained, and rained... for three days. How long should I wait? I planted them on the 16th.

I would probably wait at least a week to 10 days before giving up on them. I had the same thing happen to me when I planted my spinach...tiny seeds, knew it was going to rain so I wanted to get them in. Well it rained. Frog strangler type rain for several days. Some did get washed away or maybe covered too deeply, but probably 75% came upmore or less where they were sowed.
Good luck! :)
