LIGHTING

Typically once they're up. You want light on them. As they'll stretch without it. And get real leggy if 12-15k lux. About 300-350 ppf. No stress too much. You're just at the start of a very long road. Remember with growing. Less is more with nutrition. Don't overdo by giving extra nutrients. Doesnt mean extra bigger plants. Smooth and go through the stages. Autos just don't stress. And you'll get the best Fems: 5-8 weeks. If you want a full larger plant. Topping and HST + strong LST. can take up 2 12 weeks.. If u hv any issues feel free to DM me. Good luck. Enjoy & be paitent

The first 24 hours they don't need much light, but the moment they start stretching you should start to amp it up. If you amp up too early you can stunt them. An easy symptom to notice is if the cotys and first set of real leaves are so tight that it causes the cotys to angle upward in an awkward way. I just slightly stunted a few seeds that sprouted later than the others as i tried to stop excess stretch on the ones that sprouted first. Observe and react. take notes and follow them next time.

They are searching for light. They will get leggy if you do not have the light on. When I germinate I just leave the light on my regular veg schedule to help keep my temps optimal. You do not need to cover the seed to keep the humidity. I have covered mine with the cup a soaked the seeds in before, but that's about critter control me being super paranoid about a mouse coming along to dig up the seed. I have had critters dig my seeds in my garden i soweed the day before for a snack. pretty unliky indoors though. especially with a sealed tent. I'm watching you @m0use 😼
