yeah they really don't need to have light until the green leafy part comes up. Thet like darkness in the early stage.

Yea leave them in the dark till they start sprouting then u put them under lights but make sure the lights arent to strong or it might damage it

another question how long does the seed take to sprout once you put them into the rockwool? the waiting is killing me! X.X

that depends on the conditions Anna,
If they have warmth,darkness and moisture...3-5 days.

these seeds seem pretty fast. i put the seeds in wet napkin/bowl on tuesday 3pm and they cracked at 10pm. the next morning they had tails so i put them in rock wool. now today when i woke up they broke the surface and are growing up. is this normal?

I would say so yes, my bagseeds sprouted out of rockwool within 24 hours of being put in.
