Hey guys,

New to growing and new to forum so bare with me if i say anything stupid. Just after a little advice.

i have recently set up my grow room. it is 9 feet long by 4 feet wide. there are no windows or doors. the whole room is padded in mylar. im running a single 1000w growlush hps for now ( plants just germinated and in soil). Im running a single eziair 150mm centrifical fan connected to a mountain air carbon filter which i have run through the wall cavities and vents outside (the ducting run is roughly about 8 -10m)
To vent cool air in im also running a eziair 150mm inline fan which directs to my pots where the plants are situated, which vents from inside the house, but the vent is right next to a window.
I run a normal fan, 7 day digital programmable timer, thermometer and hygrometer.
Room has a dedicated 20A circuit breaker seprate from the rest of the house.
The medium i am using is canna coco. all of my 10 seeds germinated, i placed them directly into the canna coco, about an inch down, covered them over gently and water with distilled water which was a ph level of around 6.1 to 6.5. the pot size is 20cm. As we speak my room is operating on a temperature of about 24.5 - 25.5 deg Cel ( dont know what it is in F) and 59 % humidity. the 1000w is directly above pots which is about 5 and a half feet away. im keeping them moist but not over watering. planted them yesterday. 18 hours of light i am giving them.
Am i on the right track?
When can i expect the seeds to penetrate the soil?
Is there anything else i should do?

Thanks
