ordinary flouro tube for first 10 days and 20 degrees ?

[troyf]

Hi all,

Ive just germinated 10 seeds and have put them last night into pots with plastic bags over the pots (cheapest propogator apparently) . ive bought a normal flouro tube n put it into a cupboard that ive put reflective stuff in. I know its recommende to have warm/cool light but will a normal tube be ok ?
Would i be better off leaving them in front of a sunny window ?
Can i get away with just a normal tube without buying a t5 light ? Also i have a temp of about 20 , is that the min temp ?
Cheers for any tips

so 20 is a little low 20==68 I would reccomen 24-27 degrees. the light you have will work fine. Put a heating pad on low with a towel wrapped around it or a plant heating pad.
