Ok so, my grow room seemed to be a litttttle too hot since there was no fan or ventilation! I knew i just needed to fix that before they sprout. So this seemed like a farfetched idea yet it seems to work perfect. In my grow room the a/c duct happens to be in there as well. I figured i could just cut a hole and anytime my a/c or just the fan is running it pumps cold air right in!!
Any thoughts on this? Pros/Cons?

That sounds cool, if it is working to cool the room down, but if you want some nice healthy thick stems, that can support the bud you must have an oscalating, also with a nice strong light like you have a fan is need to blow between the light and the fan and to help to combat mold.

Hey Im sorry to hear your first set of seeds didn't make it 
That happened to me when i first attempted to start a new grow about a month ago, I think because I didn't store my seeds well. I'm sure these will do fine. Yeah water is constantly wet. And i also keep my peat pots and content nice and moist. I have been watering mine once or even twice a day.

Keep the soil wet/moist until they sprout out of the pot. They will take like 1 - 3 days. Be patient man. Check in the morning, check at night. Thats it. Let nature take its course!!
Good luck!!

For my, germing hard too, i messed up like 3 bags of seeds my first grow, but now i just throw in those soil, not plant deep, make it very shallow but under the dirt, then i water like every two days letting the soil become partially dry, by about the 3-4 day have sprouts... Did it with my bagseed got 18/18 popped and did it with my hybrid got 15/13, because you have to be really careful with the watering cause the seed float and you dont want it above the soil or to deep. Popped another 2 in with %100 sucess.. Germing to hard to many thing can go wrong, it has no other purpose but to tell you if a seed is dead or not, i'd rather be patient and throw in the dirt.

Lol, just be careful when watering, and make sure you allow the soil to get partially dry before 2nd watering and you will be golden!!

Looks like you're really going to do this right! Way to go.
Looking through it, I had a couple of reactions - first, I'd be worried about what would happen if your water heater broke, and you needed to call a repairman. I'm more of an "in the closet" guy myself.
Second, you don't need to do a 24-0 light cycle - your girls need time to rest, and you're just wasting energy if you do more than 16 hours per day.
Finally, you can have the Ocean Forest from Fox Farms shipped to you. As they say, don't treat your soil like dirt!
And that bud picture on the first page - is that something you grew? Looks great!

K so right now its half way through day 4 since the seeds have been planted. Turns out the two that were not put through germination sprouted first, along with one other girl. The other three have yet to sprout. Here are the 3 sprouted ones.
How big should they be before i transplant them to their 3 gallon pots? Also today they are starting their 16/8 lighting schedule.

I've had alot of people say that over 16 hours during vegetation is pointless and a waste of energy. Yes this will be the last transplant. Do i start my watering schedule for every 2-3 days or do i keep em constantly moist??? don't want to kill em now!!

Moisten the soil every couple of days or when the top 1" is dry. The worst thing you can do right now is water too much. If you water a little on the light side then you will be safe. Atleast for the first week. This is the most crusal point. Looks good so far.
