karma you gotta devote time to your garden or it will fail, you can try to let it do its own thing cause soil is a bit easier to maintain but if you don't have the time to devote to a garden just hold off till you do. Your plastic tent is ok, you should lose that though once they get a little bit bigger or it will cause it to be too humid in there. Turn your light to 18/6 to save electricity. Glad to see you got rid of the halogens!
