Yes, especially because you have the bags over the seeds. You want the lights on so humidity will be created! Good luck & happy halloweed 👻😎👍

This is my first grow and waiting for them to sprout out, I first soaked them in water over night on a seedling heat mat then put them into soil in these pots and into the plastic propagator in a dark room, should i take them out put them under lights now or wait til they sprout?

Spiderfarmer SF1000 tips
Hello guys I've got a question about my new lights. I have the led panel from spiderfarmer SF1000. Any tips on how to use it? 😆 Should I dim it for the seedling stage or have it constantly at 100% power?

Lamp distance from seedlings? PPFD uploaded in this weeks photos.
How far away I should have my lamp from my week old seedlings? I think it has something to do with the PPFD for my lamp (TS600), but I have no idea what it means. The lamp is set right at the very top of my tent now and is 32 inches (81cm) away. See photos in week 1.

Should I put the light on before sprouting or not?
I'm most likely going to be transferring my autos from paper towel into my medium, I've heard some people say have the light on before they sprout and some who say after it's sprout, which is the best thing to do?

Starting photos indoors for June transplant
Want to start photos on a 14/10 schedule in April to match the lights around June 1st. Can I grow my babies on a 14/10 indoor schedule or could that possibly induce early flowering? I would rather not slowly adjust down from 18 to 14 before Xplant as suggested otherwise

Auto seedlings, lighting question!
Hi! I have a question. I am just about to start my first indoor grow, it’s relatively small, only two plants, both autos. I am using the Telos 6 mesh LED for lighting but I am unclear as to when to switch the power from 25-50%? Is it when the first true leaves appear? Thanks

Distance from pot to light during germination
Worried about our light power and distance to the pots, should we be running it at full power with the light higher in the tent or vice versa? Also very unsure about watering amounts in these early stages and is it okay for water droplets to be sitting on the growth? TIA

Tengo un reflector y unos neones TCL para poner mis plantas automáticas a crecer después de la germinación hasta que estén preparadas para estar en el balcón. Pero no funciona. ¿Alguien recomienda una bombilla normal que pueda utilizar hasta que reciba un nuevo reflector? GRACIAS

Slow indoor seedling growth
4 days since sprout, issues with light timer, seedlings ended up getting 48 hrs of light after they sprouted, and this AM I found that the timer did not turn the light back on so it got 11 hours of dark last night instead of 6. Could this be detrimental to seedling?
