I have researched this inquiry but I cannot seem to find valid information relating to the first week of a seeds life once germinated. This is the stage where it is in darkness and not suppose to receive any light. (Before it is a seedling, before it has any leaves) Assuming the stem has just emerged and rapidly started growing 2 inches and the cotyledon is still closed. When will the leaves deploy and signal that it is ready for light? Assuming you use soil / peat / other type earth based starters, would the seed ever need to be watered again during this time other than the initial soaking of the medium in preparation for sowing.

I don't know where you've been getting your info but stop.
That sprout should have good light the second it breaks the soil and I keep a light close above so if it sprouts while I'm sleeping it has light right away.
If you want tall spindly sprouts that will fall over without a breeze just go ahead and keep them in the dark.
Water if they're dry otherwise let them be.

Put seed in dirt. Add water. Put under light.
Its really that fucking simple.
