pics would be helpful in determining if lights are too close or not, i want to say 6.5" with t5's is fine but without knowing more variables i cant say that for sure..

Looks fine to me!

Florescent lights can be placed nice and close, but I wouldn't put such small seedlings any closer to my lights.

Looks good so far :leaf:

I avoid using a fan until my plants are like 10" tall.

Have tried it with constant air, indirect w box fans etc, and for me, I see faster growth with less fan in early veg.

Too much air flow can dry tips and stress plants. I have seen wind stress a few times so I'm more careful now.

Good luck :leaf:
