Ok so lighting question

My plants are about a 6 days old. I have a 2ft by 4ft 8 bulb T5 ho light.
I have all the bulbs off but 2 should I go all 8 bulbs. The bulbs are 6500k 54 Watts

I would, It should be fine!! Is it 54 watts each bulb and how close is it to the seedlings?? IMO, As long as your temps are stable you should be good to go!

Yes 54 watts each bulb and about 3 in from the seedlings.
Average temp is 65 to 70 degrees

6 Days old doesn't need much light still. Try to think of it more as for every 4 leaves or so turn 1 more light on. On the flip side, it won't hurt it either by having extras on. May stretch it out a little but won't cause issues.
-Seedlings don't need much light at all.

two bulbs directly over the seedlings is fine.
As they grow wider turn on more bulbs to keep them in the footprint of the light.

Thanks for the advice guys . First time growing ,I swear I check on em every hour lol.
