they don't need light till they break dirt. i leave them on anyway, gives off some ambient heat for sprouting, and the lights are on for when they do come up, no down time.

how does light help with that??? shells break to grows of the roots and water pressure not light. you can increase the speed of this by rooting/cloning hormones but not with light.

Allright thanks guys. They are sill under the soil but should be sprouting soon. I have these little containers from the chinese resturant that I am starting my plants in. They act like a green house and the best part is they were free
they are not the best place for your seeds really, get a little green house dome type of thing, it will follow you a long way
you will use it later for cloning and stuff as well so its wroth the buck. and start your seeds always separated, for example in yiffy tabs or tiny pots, so no roots get tangled up

sure it does, but for heat you shouldn't use lights but a heating mat if your surrounding is below 75F

so buy jiffy tabs, the come in large packs. before you dig them in into bigger containers later on , rip the net of them off, so that the roots are not slowed by themBut I have 100 seeds and no little cups
jiffies go in bulk for less then 5cents a piece and you get them in every gardening center around the world, never seen one which would carry them
