Jan 20- 7pm - seeds put in water to pre soak, seeds were soaked around 36 hours, when taken out they were just starting to open.
Jan 22- 12pm - seeds were planted 1/3inch (maybe a little deeper unfortunately) into soil and watered moderately, they are planted in 5 gallon buckets with no drainage slits on bottom and covered in humidity dome, the soil is "miracle grow potting mix", lights of 400 MH watts was turned on at a distance of 2 feet 6 inches, little ventilation to room, the room is over 80 degrees. The room has no ventilation. The grow space is apron 4 by 3 feet.
Jan 22- 11 pm - seeds were under 400 watts of MH light for approx 11 hours, after a little research I conclude that the light should be significantly reduced, I am now using a 40 watt regular light bulb (non floro) at a distance of 3 feet. I wonder if I should use no light at all? The temp of the grow room is now in the mid 70s. (I do not have a temp gauge or humidity gauge but am considering getting them), I am still using the cling wrap as a humidity dome. Room still has no ventilation.
Jan 23- 10am - Seeds have shown so sighns of breaking through the soil. I am still using a 40 watt regular bulb so as not to over power the plants with the 400 watt MH, although I am now looking for a floro t5 to replace the regular bulb. There is so many ideas on what light to use durring germination Im really not sure which is the best.
Jan- 23 - 7pm - I checked the soil in all my pots (still covered by cling wrap/humidity dome) and I see a fungus or mold, the fungus/mold looks like a small white spider web, it is present in all the pots.
