New Grower Black Haze by Exotic Seeds; First Time Grow

[camith]

Ok here it goes I'm starting my first grow. For this grow i will be using black haze by exotic seeds.

I have 5 seeds that i germinated using the soak over night and coffee filter method.

I have just planted my seeds. two are in 3 gallon smart pots and three are in 2 gallon smart pots.
The soil that i am using is Happy Frog amended with coco, bio char, and a little bit of compost. i think that i am going to grow most of them out side in my backyard. i may grow 1-2 of them outdoor during day indoor under 400 watt HPS during the night.

can any one tell me if i need to keep the soil moist for the seeds to sprout? I'm not sure what care (if any) they need at this stage

Moist, but not dripping wet. I use a spray bottle to water for the first week.

One thing that always works for me after i see a tap root and place them in soil is some sort of humidity dome. I use the little 6oz clear party cups you see for punch bowls. I usually do not wet the res of the soil until the little one poke up and open up. Then i start to water out a bit to cause the roots to go both down and horizontal.

He's a cutie!

Yes, the domes are great! And I also spray my babies with fresh water. Sometimes, if they seem a bit stuck, one good spray of water helps them pop out.
