'Taint luck, feldon. I've been raising my seedlings that way for 5 yrs. The window warmth is all that's needed for germination...no lights needed. Then, I put my seedlings out right away so they're used to whatever temp it is when they go in the ground. If it's too cold at night, I bring the trays inside...like I'd do with my pets. :wink:

If you're raising the plants in 70-80 degree temps, they aren't going to be happy going in the ground in 90-100; or do you 'harden' them off, so to speak, before planting?



And you should see how I take care of my pets. :wink:
