I germinated 6 seeds in a paper towel for 2 days. Some were as long as a half in, others smaller. Anyways. I Put them in rockwool today. Im running a bubbleponics system FYI with 315 W CFL at 6500k until my other lights get here. I was just wondering, once I plant them tip side down, should I cover them or leave the little seed poking out? and Should I start to give them 24hrs light?

Thanks. But how deep should I plant them? The white tips were kinda curly so it was impossible to get them straight down, I actually broke one in half. Still planted it anyways but its probably a gonner right? Currently I have just the seed showing is that right?

Yep, you don't really want any taproot showing. I used a pointy knife, made a little slice in the rockwool and drop the taproot in, then gently packed the rockwool against the seed. Yes, the seed itself is above ground
