Breaking soil

[Cm3000]

Hi, I’m EXTREMELY new to growing. Once the seeds germinate, can they be in darkness until they break soil? Or do they need light once I place them in soil? Thank you!

Once you see something emerge, light it up.

Yes, nature does turn off the sun. It's called night.

Got another question for you awesome guys. I plan on growing outdoors. I see a small stem beginning to break soil. Since the weather has been cloudy and rainy lately. Would it be a good idea to setup a few t5 bulbs in my shop just for days that there will be no sun?

Thanks for the into! I actually have 3 plants. One I sat outside and it has not broke soil yet. The other 2 I misted with water, covered the top, and placed in my shop. Those 2 broke soil this morning. How long should I keep them covered for humidity purposes?

Do y’all think I could use this light for 2 plants that just broke soil until I have a nicer one shipped?
