germinating stage T5, 6500K lights, how close to plants

[swede]

Looking for recommendations on the distance from light to plant, seedlings are 2 inches high right now. Thanks!

I think the general rule with fluorescent lights is that close is good, and you can check by putting your hand at plant level. If it's uncomfortable for your hand it's too close.

What Grouchy said...for me that's usually about 2" above the seedling using a T5.
