Insufficient light is the biggest mistake people make starting seeds indoors. Long, tall, skinny seedlings which eventually fall over and die are the result of not enough light. Use fluorescent lights, preferably a 4-tube ballast. Tubes must be placed 1″ — 2″ above seedlings. Ballasts can be hung on chains and hooked into ceiling hooks for easy adjustment as seedlings grow. Seedlings must receive 14 — 16 hours of light per day.
