Sprouting Germination

Hello everyone,

Ok so after my initial thought on frying my newly germinated seeds here is what i have done.
I took the 600w HPS and turned it off and got the 60W energy saver bulb & put this above the seedling tray.

My humidity was at 31% and my temp was at 28 degrees c which i thought was hot and too little humidity... when the 1st one sprouted it looked dry
so i sprayed them because the soil had been dried up because of the 600w hps

i have now put under 60w cfl and put the dome over it humidity has rose to 59% and temps are around 22 degrees c. soil is moist....

When i planted the germinated seeds i put them taproot down, but i think a few of them are growing down instead of up? would it be ok to turn them around ie take them out and re-plant as i think it is growing down rather than up... or will they just sort themselves out??

Thanks Again
PR.

I don't like the paper towel method myself I just soak mine over night and plant them right in pro mix right side up I use a heat mat and a seedling tray with a 7" humidity dome that I wrapped with mylar and the biggest cfl bulb they had at walmart I get about 95% germ rates.
