Growing under Lights

One Light...Big Dreams HELP

20 years ago

I have one 24" light

I read on another GW forum of using two seedling trays and switching them after 12 hours.

Anyone have experience with this?

I read it is good to keep the seedlings from direct sunlight.

We have a sunroom with bright afternoon sun (When it shines in (rainy) western Oregon. Would this be a good place for the light??

After the seedlings get a third leaf, is it time to re-pot and move to sunroom?

Thanks

Put them in the sun, leave them in the sun. Forget the light. That will work for most seeds. Repot when they are too large for the container or too crowded.

I agree w/ shrubs, there is not substitute for the sun...If you have direct sun, use it!
