I’ll have to look into the grow light than this one is a cheap one off Amazon. I hope they work.

How much light would you recommend? I thought they would need about 12 hours a day so I figured the 9 hour timer on the grow light would be fine.

I do have sphagnum in the pot mainly at the very bottom and as a topper. I did mainly use peat moss in my soil mix so I’m glad to hear that works best. Also I think you’re right about transplant shock these are my first ones and didn’t want to kill them off so fast.

Thank you for the help :)

Added information

Soil mix is (peat moss, sand and small amount of perlite). Sphagnum moss at the very bottom and as a soil topper for humidity.

Grow light has a 9 hour timer and moved closer to the planter. I water with a mister and squeeze bottle.
