Waiting for seedlings to pop is still burtal

My grow tent is now fully setup! I switched out my bloom/veg light for a 4x T5 bulb kit that I got from my buddy Don before he moved to BC. Now everything is ready, my light cycle is programmed at 16 hours on and 4 hours of darkness from 8pm to 11am to miss peak hours. My little Wyze Cam pictures will not look purple anymore lol. I also lowered my T5’s to be about 4” from the seeds for maximum light penetration. Hopefully, my hours of YouTube pay off.

Now the boring part hits. Waiting for the seeds to germinate. Nothing makes you feel hopeless like waiting for your time and effort to be put to the first test of the year. My timing for seedlings is pretty good, my setup is pretty good and the weather outside is still cold and below freezing. My grow tent on the other hand is doing well holding at 20.5-21 C.  If I can get a decent germination rate, then everything should be on track for the end of May.

Hopefully, I do not lose them. My little kids in their cells and cups are hopefully waiting to bust out into the world.
