VV, nice grow man. I was wondering where did you get that tray and lid or "prop" that you started the seeds in. I just think it would solve my problems. i cant get my seeds to sprout no where near as effective as you do. I dont have a t5 but use a 400mh for veging and just keep the seedlings far enough away

That one came with one of the early package deals I bought at one of the big box stores. Its more square on the sides. My hydro shop carries one that is better, I think it was under $10.00. I only use it for seeds, as soon as they are above ground, they need to breath more than they need the humidity. I would not use a 400watt anything for seeds. Its way overkill until at least two weeks. The lights I have in the clone stand I built are 2' regular t-12 or t-8 fixtures, bought a Meijers on sale for $12.00, including the bulbs. It would save you that amount in electricity.
I have a fair success rate with seeds because I don't plant them unless the germinate, they already have a root, and unless I damage that root, it will sprout. I plant them so that I can see the top of the seed right at the top of the rapid rooters, or whatever I am using at the time, all of them work in my opinion.
Thanx for the kind comments, stop by again later, I am just going to post were everything is now. VV:blsmoke:

Germinate them with just a damp paper towel put the seeds in it fold it up and put it in a ziplock bag and keep in a dark place, its realy up 2 u man if u wana hit them with light right away i did, so when they do pop up they get light asap.

cool thanks for the advice, do you use a heating pad under the ziplock bag, or just post them up in room temp?

A heating pad is not necessary for seeds until they germinate and get planted. SOme say it helps, I am not one of them. I didn't have good luck with a heat mat. And the thermostat for them is like $50.00. If I ever see one of the good ones made of neoprene I will buy one and the thermostat.
With the 8 bulb, turn on only 1/2 of the fixture for the first week or so, i alteranated the two switches. If you think about duplicating nature, springtime isn't that light and hot, that comes with summer. VV:blsmoke:

gotcha, I only left 3 of the center lights on. I felt the soil and it felt cold, so i put the t5 bulbs about 4 inches from the soil top. my temp is 79 humidity is 43%. will this be ok to warm up rhe soil a bit possibly promote sprouts? Thank you for this help:-)

The plants don't need extra heat at the above ground level, 70 to 78 is fine for them, its the root zone that can be a little warmer. Check thru Al B Fucts thread on cloning, the teperatures that he discusses would be the same after the seeds have been planted, he explains it very well. VV
