Dropped seed into plastic cup (with holes in bottom for drainage) filled with damp soil and covered with about a half inch of dirt. Covered the cup with plastic and left somewhere warm. After seedling sprouted I put it into the tent and set up my automations. Using the app was way easier to set this up. Initially I used a seedling recipe that was preloaded, but quickly found out I wanted more customization. I currently have the light and little fan going at level 3 for 18/6. ChatGPT told me to hang the light about 30 inches above the plant to get around 400 ppfd. I trust it. The exhaust fan is on its own automation to turn on whenever the temp gets above 81 f, or the humidity gets above 71%. The plant was watered a week after seed was dropped, and I have kept a wet towel under cup in tent to help create humidity.
