That's a good idea, unfortunately the analog timers I was using weren't that sort. The digital is working OK thus far. *crossed fingers*




By the way, I just took off the light diffusion thing because they are getting really quite tall (I mean they grew over a centimetre since this morning!) and it seems like they're craving the light or something. The HPS is a good 3 feet away from them so I'm hoping they're OK with that. I took out the dark green water catchment tray too because I think it was just absorbing heat and I don't need it yet.

Bonus question (sorry) I have a seed that cracked and it has a visible tap root but it hasn't sprouted in its cube. Should I leave it in there or chance taking it out and planting it in soil without its cube? Photo of it:
