just stuck my sprouted seedling in soil under my 600watt . ...the sprout has not come thro soil yet ...but my temp is ...85/90 ..wtf is going onneed help please
This doesn't make sense to me, first you said you had a sprouted seedling, then say it has not come through the soil yet....
Anyway you don't need the 600W yet, way overkill, just put t under some CFLs for a couple weeks.

i done the wet tissu method ..they sprouted ..then i potted them stuck them under my 600watt ..and my temp is 85 ner pots ...if that makes it easyer..sorry
When you put them in the wet paper towel and you see that nub, it's called germination. You then, put that in soil and when it's above soil it's called a sprout.
85 already is insane, your going to need a solution. I can't help because I don't know your setup. Just a 600w hps doesn't help at all.

I pretty much concur with other opinions before me, I use 220 watts of true cfl for the first two weeks of growth, I go to Walmart and get true 55 watt cfls and place one per plant. After about 2 weeks I turn on my 400 watt hps and dim it to 50% (200 watts). This gets the plants accustomed to a more intense light, After about 3 days to a week I up to 300 watts (75%) and a few days later I up it again till full power is used, What concerns me is that If your having a temperature issue now then you will again after you reinstate the 600 watter , I would get that issue taken care of now before your plants can use the 600. because a temp issue now will be one later, I would invest in some good ventilation fans so you can get your temps down to a max of about 81.5 F. Good luck

85/90 in veg, just wait until you switch to flowering. LOL!!!!!!! 10*+ hotter guaranteed. and a t8 6500k is all you need for seedlings, or cfl's. that 600 will cook them.

well then sadly your grow might not work. its like trying to make a ham and cheese omelet, but don't have the ham to make it properly. you can still make the grow happen, ditch the 600w light and run cfl's or t5's/t8's, or led if you have a lot of coin to buy an led fixture.
