    Newbie starting seeds indoors

    Thanks! I put the light on them this morning and put it less than an inch from them, that was my thought process was to get them a little stocky maybe for a week then raise the light. Yeap, going to get some more started for the rest of the garden soon.

    K, so I waited too long to get a light on them...I got a light last night and this morning I turned it on for the first time for them. Recon I should scratch these and start some new ones and get a light on them immediately when they sprout or just push forward with these?

    Newbie starting seeds indoors

    Last night I decided to probe a little into the marglobe tomato and bell pepper...either I planted the seed too deep or the seed sank into the peat. Either way they were too deep and I brought them up a bit, maybe they will germinate now.

    Newbie starting seeds indoors

    Thanks for the replys folks...I don't appear to have any problems with dampening off at this point, just marglobe and pepper taking a little longer to germinate for whatever reason. They are planted in jiffy peat pots that you add water to and they absorb the water. So, should I keep the...
