They won't use light till you see green. It really comes down to preference, and heat. You do want them to be slightly warm to induce germination. I germinate in a paper towel, but I put them under T5's as soon as they are planted. Sometimes they stay in the dark till I see the seed break the surface, doesn't seem to matter at all really.

Yea doesn't matter. I put mine directly under my lights, right after I germinate them. It seemes to work great. My first few leaves get huge with the light at 20 hours.
