#78 - Grow Light FAQs

Seed Talk with Lisa & Layne

Wondering how far above seedlings to place your grow lights? If a seed needs light to germinate, should your trays be under grow lights from the moment you sow the seeds? Today, Lisa and Layne discuss some of the most frequently asked questions about grow lights. They cover grow light placement, when to move seedlings under lights, how long to leave lights on each day, and whether or not seeds that need light to germinate require grow lights to sprout successfully. Listen to the podcast and learn how to provide the light your seedlings need to grow into strong, healthy, stocky transplants!
