    Default how should i start...

    ive got 10 blue cheese seeds, a 600watt high pressure sodium light, a good sized grow room...

    i know how to germinate as i have already succesfully germinated them...

    once germinated do i put them under the light (if so how high should the light be from the plants), how often should i water and should it just be with normal water, how soon should i start seeing signs of life and what will them signs be....

    id appreciate any help thanks..

    yes put them in light as soon as they have germinated.Don't put the light too close,are you using a cfl or a hps? ok just seen you have a 600w hps..way too big and hot for seedlings..get yourself one 125w cfl for seedlings.

    If the seeds has germed mate then you already got life. Once popped it needs to go under the light. 600w HPS can be too much for seedlings although some do use them, I personally only use CFL for seedling and veggin, the HPS is in the flower room. If HPS is your only lilght then I'd keep it quite hight at first and gradually lower it as it grows stronger and can cope with the heat. I take it you have good extraction?

    Edit: You can use ordinary water out the tap but some recommend letting it stand for a day to de-chlorinate, which is whjat I do but dunno if it actually makes a diff cause I've never used water straight from tap.
