They will do better in stable warm temperature but you will have to give them 14-16 hours of light each day

clamp lamps should work fine.

Thanks Steve! I feel like grow lights takes it to the next level. That's an impressive setup you have, and your trees look great!

Travis, I'd avoid letting them get too hot or dry, as both can be damaging. As for grow lights, they sell good LED bulbs for cheap and you can get a metal clamp light, or they sell these little clip on LED lights with multiple heads and a 12 hour timer on amazon for really cheap. My kid has had one for the better part of a year and has been growing an avocado seedling, a sageretia cutting, and some tillandsias pretty well under them. It was really inexpensive.

Rhizoctonia solani, a fungus is a very frequent killer of seedlings, in fact it is the number 1 killer. The fungus thrives on wet soils. Therefore, water you seedlings in the morning and then set them in the sun or other light long enough to dry the surface of the soil.

Silica, my intended soil soaked in some rain water for a few days. It's drying out but is there anything I should do to the soil prior to planting to kill any possible fungus? Or just get new soil? I assumed since soil gets wet it wouldn't be a problem, but I don't want to plant the seedlings in compromised soil!

After My seedlings have developed 3 inches of root or more, I lift the seedling to expose 1/2 in of roots. I also have my pots filled to the brim to eliminate any humidity holding dish around the plant base. The stem not the root is attacked by this disease.

To kill all soil diseases and fungi, You can micro wave the medium for 3 minutes before planting the seed. Steve, your lifting the 3 inch seedling would work, but until the seedling finally reaches 3 inches rhizoctonia has a lot of time to do its damage.

Thanks Steve, that's good to know!

Thanks Silica! I'll microwave the mix first.
