Seeds cracked, Now in soil, Have some env. questions.

[BHO]

I am just getting started on my most recent grow. Being where I am from, it is very cold outside and my room is on the chilly side.
I germinated my beans using paper towels and plastic bags and now I have the ones that opened in soil and under humidity domes.. I have them all in a cab with an air cooled 400W HPS ~3 feet above them. The temperature is sitting around 78-80 degrees and the humidity in the domes is around 80%.
Will these temperatures and having the light provide dry heat work? Mr. Cervantes said the light is fine, so long as a humidity dome is used and the soil is checked for dryness often.
I am hoping someone has experience using the light for heat. I am hoping to avoid buying a heat mat but I will if this method will cause and real problems.

You should be fine with these temps and rH.

Yep but pull the dome once roots are well established.

like convex said u should be good. make sure you mist inside the dome every now and again

do you live in a damp-cold or dry-cold environment?

I live in a dry-cold and get the heat from my lamps too, and occasionally spray mist my plants without the fear of introducing fungus. Works well for me.
