Just so you know, it doesn’t matter which way you put the cap in. A capacitor is simply two plates with an insulator in between. The plates build up a charge on them (positive on one plate, negative on the other). The size of the plates determine the capacitance (i.e. 104 pF is what you soldered, 1 F is larger than a soda can).
