A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Food Garden Forum Light Problem

My mom told me to take out some very young seedlings outside for sunlight.That'll kill them! She doesn't want any lights on during the daytime.What a cheapskate.What should I do???

set them in a window, with light like open a window and put it in the lights path but not to where it's hot. I did that with my seedlings and they were fine!
I had them on the kitchen table because their is a huge window there. and i just moved them when needed, or you can harden off the seeds early, start off by setting them in the shade for a few days a couple hours a day and let them get used to that (bring them in at nihgt) then switch it up to partial shade for a few days remembering to bring them in at night and then you can go to sun, just a few hours a day bring them in at night them you can prolly move to just letting them stay in full sun... but make sure the circulation is good i spray mines with fungicide from schultz anyways everytime i watter them which reminds me i have to do that...

good advice scott. i'd only add one thing. if there is a fan that you can sit them in the path of, it will help them develop good strong roots.

Thanks.I'll try that.
