    Hey all think i need a little help.

    i planted my seedlings yesterday and put the light on for 12 hours 600w hps. i also put it about a metre high away from the seelings.

    it had a dark period for 6 hours midnight - 0600.

    i have kept the soil moist giving it a mist every 3/4 hours except for the night time.

    just been to check on them now & out of 20 seeds about 3 of them have popped through they still have the seed casing on and look a little dry so i sprayed water around it not on it....

    should i have the light on a 18/6 i have a fan pointing at it trying my best to keep it cool....

    any additional info would help great thanks.

    Switch to cfl or t5 floresents for seedlings as a 600w would fry ur babies and also be overkill for something that small. Switch your light to 18-24 hours on to simulate veg and then switch to 12/12 when your ready to bloom

    I set my clones about 3 feet to the side of 1000w in the veg room, that way they get weakened portion of light. Personally not a fan of domes, although some like them. I put a tray of water next to them and mist from a couple feet away if they start looking a bit sad.

    Hey PR12

    Keep the dome on even under the light. The fan also contributes to a lot of drying out. I wouldn't put a fan on it until its ready to come out of the humidity dome.. Try maintain a 80% humidity.
