Florescent Lamp – Amount Of Exposure
Q: I have a double florescent tube lamp that I’m going to place over my seedlings when they come up. How many hours should it be on?
A: Eighteen hours on and six hours off seems to work well. Remember that soil temperature makes a big difference to your seedlings too. Keep the soil at a constant 75 degrees.
