Just like stick your finger down in there. If it's dry enough it'll be airy and easy to get your finger into. You wanna guesstimate where your root ball is based on how big your plant is and try to feel to the bottom of it. Just remember you want them to want to drink!!

Well you don't need to hook up an active intake, you need POWERFUL exhaust. I'm telling you bro use both for exhaust and you'll see yout temp won't be an issue. just mount them next to each other on the top.

I use plastic sandwhich bags over mine, if you position them correctly you can have the corners sticking up over the cup and give the seeding a good 4 or 5 inches to grow before it touches it. The one plant that broke through the soil is thriving on that, especially when I put it outside in the sun for a few hours

You might want to go to walmart or something and pick up these tiny hooks, I have that same lamp you do but use it differently

I'm going to Home Depot today or tomorrow to pick up some small chains so I can adjust the height once the plastic bags are removed, I need to keep these plants short so I'm going to put the light as close as I can
