canna seedling advice

17 years ago

A bit off topic again. I posted it on our canna forum but it's very slow... I'm hoping someone can shed some light to me. :)

I got the canna seeds from 2 members here.

I sanded a small area on the canna seed until I saw the white surface. I soaked them for 2 days then transfered them to a small 2" diameter plastic cup with pro-mix potting mix. It's also on the south side window sill. After 4 days which is actually today, I checked if there was some progress. I'm so happy because it germinated. I saw a root.

I would like to help them grow well. However, I think we still have 60 more days of cold weather. I'm worried that they might experience damping off. How do I take care of them indoors? Do I need to put a light above them? What should I buy, incandescent or flourscent? And should it light them from 7pm to 5am everyday?

Thanks in advance!

Neil
