Germinate the seeds in the dark or under lights?

[Phunnyman]

I hope this isn't a stupid question, but when growing indoors, is it best to germinate the seeds under the CFL's or in the dark? I've always germinated them on the window sill then planed them outdoors in the past but the indoor growing is newer to me.

Right now I have ten seeds in small plastic cups that started breaking the shells in wet paper towels, then I put them in wet organic soil. Under the CFL's now.

Advise please...and please be gentle.:hippy:
