Seedling air circulation

image.jpg I have an unknown strain. Was told it was a white widow.

Using 1 85w "actual pull" CFL 5k

I just germinated the other day. I have them in jiffy pots and they recently broke the surface and are opening their leaves.

Now I have 4 of them. They are currently in an ice cream gallon container with about 1/4 of an inch of water on the bottom of the ice cream bucket with a zip lock bag rubberband around the top. How often should I take off the Plastic bag and get fresh air in there?

Another question.
I have 1000w mh
400w mh/hps
Is there a benefit of running the 1000w mh and also running 400w of hps? Or should I just stick with the pure veg light "mh" and ignore the cooler temp light?

Wow, I wish I could help you but I just don't know, where did you do your research about germing seeds at? Haven't found this technique anywhere before I'd love to read more about it

image.jpg Im kind of winging it. These seedlings where all packed up 3 days ago. In 3 days I have germed them and broke the surface. I'm kind of just applying everything I read into one contraption. The only issue for me at this point is how often I should exchange the highly humid air bases on what others would think would be good

Yeah, not sure, I just put mine in coco and water them, I don't use domes or anything like that, but I def wouldn't leave them in standing water they like to dry out a bit, makes the roots grow faster when they have to look for water and big roots =big plants, plus standing water in a clear container can get ugly fast if you don't watch it
