im switching them over to the "big boy" 1000 watt hps in 2-3 weeks, didnt want to stress them out right off the bat, so i decided to start them on the t5s..now that the t5's are working so well, im scared to use the 1000 watt..haha
 
Squid-They are called "The Green Pad Jr." and essentially they are little pads that release Co2 in humidity domes. They are activated by the humidity. Like I said, I didn't order them, got them as a freebee when I ordered up a bag of natural Co2. Pretty cool.

Bean-Thanks for posting the pics! Hope your good luck rubs off on me. I did the old paper towel trick until the seed cracked and I saw the tap root show (took about 36 hours) and then put her into a jiffy pot with jiffy seed starting soil on Thursday, this time around I used a humidity dome with a heat mat. And hot damn I think I saw a little something something start to poke through on Sunday! Gave a does of water yesterday. Hoping it all works out this time. Good luck on the rest of your grow!
 
Here is a new update on my grow. Obviously an epic fail on my first seed attempt. And I thought I almost screwed up the second (check the thread on it here https://www.autoflower.org/f44/heat-mat-question-germing-problems-7530.html).

But I now have growth! Went about things differently this time, and they seem to be working. Here is my girl poking through the ground, looking to crack that shell off her!

And THREE times a charm! Having tried other methods I finally have a little sprout to show off! (That last little one never broke her shell off, and died off just 2 days after breaking ground.)

This time around I did the paper towel germ method. Dropped it into a jiffy pellet, put the jiffy pellet into a mini humidity dome, and placed it onto my heating mat. Difference around this time I placed a small towel in between the heat mat and humidity dome. Had a sprout in 48 hours, cracked it's shell off by 72 hours.

I then placed the little sprout jiffy pellet and all into my airpot, presoaked filled with Lambert LM3 mix, with some sulfur to lower the ph. And tossed on one 65 watt CFL 20 on/4 off.
