hi i just finished germinating my seed and i just planted the seed and i have it running under a 60w cfl bulb about 2-3 inches away and im wondering if i should just put some plastic over cup or keep it under the light and how long will it take to show any site of growth, it is a bagseed.

Direct light before a seed has even popped isn't a good idea. Placing it in a warm, shaded place is just enough.

what do you mean by popped the root has cracked? do you mean by popping out of the surface.

ive heard right after germination and after you plant seed a little light is no problem cause it makes the plant strive for the light. it is a weak cfl.
