#Edit. Little bit easier to use this site on my laptop vs phone. So, I'm growing in a (very) small tent. (centimeters) 50 x 50 x 120. Tent is inside a wardrobe, but the back of the wardrobe is open top and bottom, and against an exterior wall - so overheating does not seem to be an issue. Tent: TH Deluxe D600 Grow Tent Light: Spider Farmer SF 1000 LED Full Spectrum, Dimmable Function with Samsung LEDs Ventilation: 4 inch / 10cm Spider Farmer Exhaust with carbon filter, setup outside the tent (just an exhaust tube in the tent. Fan: Now with Spider Farmer 10w oscillating 24cm fan (sent back a Pro Breeze Mini Fan with Clip as it was insanely loud) Seeds bought directly from Royal Queen Seeds - pack of 3 Sherbet Queen and pack of 5 Quick One. Picked one of each at random and planted them directly in small 17cm diameter. 20cm height, plant pots - medium a mix of perlite, coco fiber and potting compost. A layer of expanded clay balls at the base of the pot for drainage and ventilation. Germinated after 3 days, although I realised I planted them far too deep - so on day 3 I scraped maybe 2cm of soil gently off the top until I could see the top curve of the cotyledon/stalk then left it. Seed showed itself properly the next day. As per prior entry - thought they were getting a bit long and stretchy, but the stalks were dark and quite thick - so maybe just first grower paranoia. Sherbet Queen is bigger than the Quick One after germination and also showed it's head a day earlier. Tent temperature over first 7 days is 22.5 Celsius day and about 20C at night. The average humidity is 55RH but for the first 4 days after germination, the plants were under half cut-off plastic cola bottles with a couple holes punched for ventilation to ensure higher humidity. Ventilation was turned on after day 4 at a very low rate (10% of power just for cycling the air in tent). Light was dialed at 50% power for first days and was turned up to 60% on day 4 after sprouting when second true leaves made their first appearance.

looks fine in diary. The early cue is color of the stem. If it isn't white/pale then it's got plenty of light. Make sure the nodes spread out at least some small amount over next week or so. That will tell you if you are giving too much light. Early on they are obviously stacked on each other, but should see some spacing develop.
