I popped 4 seeds last night and put them into their soil medium but i only had my lamp light at the time so i just put them there overnight and they've been on daylight for the entire day. i just got back from home depot with a 4 pack of 23 watt daylight 5000k cfls but i didn't buy a fan so the lights are sitting atop the plant with no ventilation other than the doors being open. tomorrow i will be getting a box fan at work so that shouldn't be an issue unless ya'll think my girls will burn by tonight. i watered yesterday but incredibly lightly and wonder if i should water again since i'm going to have them on 24 hour lights till tomorrow night when they'll get their first night cycle.

It's really hard to over water a plant in its first week, but not hard to dry them out cuz their taproots are so short.

yeah which is why i've been wanting to be generous with the water but i dipped my finger in the soil and its still moist so they should be still good for 12 hours under the 4 cfls. they aren't really hot a few inches away so we're golden. i'll take note of that though and make sure i don't allow the soil to get crust-dry.
