New Grower just a few questions before I plant my seeds tomorrow

[Fantasy Island]

Ok here's what I got going on.

2x3x4h foot grow box
67% rh
78° temp
96x3 mars hydro reflector
3 3 gallon smart pots with a mix of 1/3 perlite, 2/3 happy frog and ocean the centers dug out with jiffy mix seed starter in the hole. The pots have been watered to runoff.
I have the seeds soaking in ro water should be ready to plant tomorrow.

Ok now the questions.

Do I need to put a humidity some over the seeds with my humidity where it is?

And at what distance should I keep my light once they germinate?

Thanks

Nice set up ... may be a little crowded w/ three ... I generally don't use a humidity dome and most of my grows are in the mid 60s for rh ... I do spray the spot where the seed is planted daily or if you don't have a small hand sprayer then dripping the water on the seed can work well too ... that said a Humidity dome doesn't hurt anything ... I'd start at max height for your space and then inch it down after the first week to about 14" at 3 weeks and then stick w/ about that distance ... Sounds like you did your homework ... Hopefully you didn't choose tall plants ... Good Luck w/ your grow.

Thanks Chester.:Sharing One:


I do plan on lsting to keep the height down.

Assuming success it will be important to be able to find a way to hang your light as close to the top as possible w/o blocking the fans ... Might be a good idea to check the Mars Hydro thread to dble check my height answer ... it will be important to not let it stretch in a 4' box ...
