This is my first year starting plants before Spring arrives and I am having a great time growing plants from seeds and propagating some plants under fluorescent lights in my attached garage. I have been wondering about the lights though. The lights should be just a couple inches away from the seedling, but as the seeds become plants I'm thinking the lights don't need to be so close to the plants. I'm growing impatiens from seed (which are doing really well) along with some Begonias and Angel Trumpets. Since they all grow at different rates and are different sizes the light source will be farther away for some plants and not for others. When does the seedling become a plants and is it OK to keep the lights further away for plants?
Thanks for all your help as usual.
