First of Happy Birthday Jan ! True what a better birthday gift than happy plants and they look happy plants. The fuzzy stuff might be cobweb fungi or something. Ive seen it before with grows when i added neem meal into the soil. Not the best with lights, not sure with little ones closer, depends your lights maybe way more powerful than the CFL T5s i am using. i can touch them after a night (burn me not much at all)You're not late at all. I cant seem to get started
So far I've had one peak its head out but that's all she ever did rip. I started some this morning doing it 3 different ways so we will see.
Seedy heads do drop off, if not i carefully hold gently the stem and use tweezers to gently pull them off
