We have planted some seeds in seedling mix. They are already popping up after 3 days. At the moment we have them under a 2 bulb 4' 32W T8 shop light. It seems like every article I read on germinating seeds recommends a different kind of light as well as a different placement. I would love to hear what you have done, what has worked for you, what hasn't. Thank you!
I'm with @G gnome I pop all my seedlings under 326 W of HO T-5s keeping the lights 4" from canopy. I also use a small fan to keep some circulation moving around. Tight nodes and good growth this way........ Saves $$$ not having to veg with MH. Then when ready for flower they go under HPS for bloom.

I thought as I reread this today I should clarify. I harden them off as I transition from T-5's to HPS. I ease em in over 3-5 days before they really get blasted. I believe it creates less stress this way.
