Hey guys, this is my first time growing really anything so any help/tips are much appreciated. Im still building my Sterilite plastic bin grow box, but I will post pictures of it this weekend when it is finished.

Here is my half rigged up grow box with my sprouts (Turned a few lights off for the pictures):

Hoping to finish my build today and tomorrow cause my sh*t is a train wreck.
Here are a few close ups of my Pineapple Kush babies 6 days old (including 36 hours of germination) in a 70/30 ratio of soil to perlite under five 23 watt 6500K CFL's (I used a local organic soil… cause f*ck the home dePOT that’s why haha… nahh but for real home dePOT didn’t have their spring gardening section stocked yet):

I decided to go with the two cup technique (use a clear cup and a normal plastic party cup (thanks DocJ and DaWill for the suggestions)) so I could see how damp the soil is while still protecting the roots from the light. I still may have overwatered them a little bit. I know I know, rookie move.
