ok...here it is... 2 seeds out of 4 have shown tales in the paper towel..i have put them in the dirt today..the root protruded from the seed about 2 to 3 centimeters(closer to 3)..put about a half inch in the dirt and watered thouroghly under 4 23 watt/1600 lumen CFL's in a closet with white garbage bags tightly taped to the walls for maximum lighting....first question..what is your estimate timing for days i will go till sprouts show..???

Yeah man the only thing I can say is get rid of the trash bags. Either paint the walls flat white or get yourself some mylar. Both are cheap. No tin foil either unless you want your plants burned later on.

Hey dude, im here to answer you questions, first off the wardrobe your using looks pretty big, thought about investing and 250watt hps they are about £100 with cheap dutch shiney relfector, but would do well in a closet tht size, and you pots have way too little soil in them considering the size of your wardrobe, for any more seedlings you are gonna sprout, FIll the container to the top, also with pots that wide but so little filled it will an annoyig job transplanting them i think, but apart form that all looks well.
Jolly, hope it helps
