germing - my seedlings dead?

  1. I followed the germination 420 guide. How long does it take for the plant to sprout? I think I had my light too close. When I turned it off and touched the soil, the soil was warm/hot, which means the plants were prolly too warm and burned/died. How long should I wait before restarting the process--to see if my plants will sprout or not?
     
  2. High there, I'd give them maybe a week and then restart. Make sure you back the light off and don't cook em, they don't need much light as seedlings.

    Good luck
     
  3. Thanks man. Yeah idk I was told 2-4", but if I go 2" I think I need a fan to handle the heat. I think I need a fan for fastest growing. If I raise the lights too much, it'll slow my growth ;\
     
  4. A fan is a must dude, it will help with airflow, temps and make your stems stronger.

    Good luck :wave:
     
  5. hey dude light isn't to much of an issue before they hit the surface, alot of people dont even put them under light untill they've poped up above the soil, so if ur concerned about cooking them u can back the light right off untill they pop up
