Thanks everyone. My two mystery seeds have sprouted so it's time to get moving!
Bozo - The bottom shelf is adjustable, and I just moved it way up closer to the lights. I will probably grab a few of those y splitters. I have one or two around here somewhere. I need a few more bulbs anyway. Speaking of bulbs...
jangel - I am runninng mostly Daylight bulbs. There is one 1600 lumen 2700k "Soft White" bulb in there right now. I am going to swap that for another daylight bulb when I pick some up later today. I read through those two posts a few days ago and it looks like I need between 1,000 - 2,000 lumen per square foot. Right now I have roughly 7.5 square feet of area in that chamber, so I need between 7500 --> 15000 of lumen. I currently have 5120 lumen in Daylight bulbs.
Pappy - Thanks for the recipe. I just popped two of my germinated seeds into some potting soil I had handy. It was a Miracle Grow organic. I am going to pick up some of the Hyponex, pearlite, etc for when I need to re-pot.
I added a small fan to the cabinet today and will be running out later to get an exhaust fan and some vents. I also moved some stuff around to better suit the grow and keep stuff out of the way.
I appreciate everyones input so far.
