What is the LED light?
brand, watts, colors, etc...

And yes, plants need light or they die. As soon as a seed sprouts the plant will need to transition to creating its own food through photosynthesis...which requires light.

If its a large (high power) led grow light than you may want to start under a CFL for atleast a few days. Seedlings dont always do well when placed directly under an extremely intense light.
