I planted my germinated seed today in soil and put a 14 watt cfl about 1 inch obove the pot will tht be enough for it to sprout??? Please respond soon. THANK YOU GRASSCITY!!!!
Its best to have a light above seeds when you plant them, they look for the warmth, and pop the surface. And yeah thats enough light for now.
14 watts is way to low bro. 100watts is ideal..the more the better. All 14watts will give you after a short while is a very small plant. Remember your trying to replicate the sun. A plant has no requirements as well for light untill the first set of leaves grow.
