    Question for seedling and light

    Well my grow is goin to be an outdoor one but i was thinking that after the germination that the plant will be to sensitive if i put it right on the pot would risk it and i will have to go check it many times a day and the spot is a little far from my house . Soi was thinking that i should have it inside for the first week so it grows at least the the second 2 leaves . Butthe thing is that i dont have a lamp. Theonly lamp i have is a led room lamp 20 w equilevant to 150w (i dont know what that means) 2542 lumens warm white light 2700k . Is it good for it for the first week or am i going to slow down a lot its grow cause its an auto and time is precious. So what do you think

    Also lets say i put it with this lamp for the first week is it a good idea for a 24/24 continious light but when i put it outside the light period will drop to 14 hours and i am afraid it will be stressed.

    To many questions i know but i want to be sure before i do anything😂😂

    You can get a clamp on shop lights at walmart, depot, lowes like 10 bucks and you might have to search around the shelves but I found a 4 pack of 100w (23w draw), 5K spectrum, CFLs for about 12 bucks but that's all the CFLs you'll need for years!
    You can put your seedling right under that cfl just fine!

      The 2700k color temp will cause it to be stretched out. Red spectrum causes elongation of the leaves and stems. This is why most growers use lights in the 5000k (or higher) range during seedling stages.
      There are 3 things you must check everyday when growing in hydro:
      1) Water level (How much h2o is she drinking in 24hrs)
      2) pH level (change over 24hrs)
      3) ppm/EC level (How much food is she eating in 24hrs)

          My thought is as soon (ok it takes 2 weeks) as they see the reduction to 14/10s they will flower.
          Good luck!

          Hey Giannhs just when you do decide to move them outdoors help them by slowly giving them time to adjust. And do make area as pest free as possible.
