They should be under a light from the moment they burst through the soil, at this stage in their life, hey should be getting as much light as possible, a 20 hour day usually works pretty well. Just make sure that you keep them watered, and at the same time don't over-water! 250w should be fine if you're only growing a couple-three plants, any more than that and you're going to have problems when they get older with lanky plants stretching to get whatever light they can. I hope this helps.

Peace

don't put the light any closer than where it's comfortable to hold the back of your hand under the bulb for a minute or two...watch daily and adjust as needed and go slow with the light on your seedlings at first. adjust the light down over a few days to the spot you find where it's comfortable (but still warm). they like all the light but can't handle the intensity at first.
