    Mushrooms

    put them in your salads, or spaghetti sauce. there is probably too much moisture, ie wet.. try putting some growrox on top of the soil, or some sand. it stops stuff from growing on the surface.

    TOO MUCH LIGHT can stress plant?

    thanks for the advice. i see many people say 2-3 inches, i think that is way too close for 1 wk old seedlings which could explain why my little seedlings are pointed away from the bulbs. they only have 2 true leaves which are about 1/2 inch long. i will try moving the lights up an inch or...
