Welcome!
You can put a light over them. Although until they’ve broken ground they won’t be able to see it, it will still help keep them warm and the light will be available the second they pop.
What type of light? CFL’s can be withing a few inches. Higher intensity lights need to be further away.

Just put your hand between the light and seeds/seedlings to make sure it doesn’t feel hot. I think you’ll be ok with that light not being too hot but better safe than sorry so I thought I’d mention it.

If on a propagation Mat you don’t need light but if you don’t have a heating mat or heating surface to keep them warm the light won’t hurt, you want to shoot for around 80 degrees, if using your light for heat you want to keep it on 24/7

Congratulations! Great news. Robert’s seeds are GOOD ! I usually put a clear plastic cup or cut off 2 liter soda bottle over them when they are young to keep the humidity high. Same thing with clones.
Are you going to start a grow journal? Beginners and experienced growers all benefit from the input. It also makes it easy for new growers to look at other growers experiences and learn from that. The support ticket is on the first page of the forum. If you can’t find it, let me know and I will paste it for you.
Is this you first grow? Even if it is not, I would highly recommend downloading Robert’s free Growing Guide. It has helped many of us get a good start. Hope to see your grow soon on the Beginners Grow Journal. Jerry

Runt of the litter most likely, happens often. Now it looks like your over watering it also, all you need to do with that one is mist it with a spray bottle so the soil is just moist but not wet. Others are looking great.

Great posts, I am engaging in starting some Durban Poison regular seeds I bought from here over a month ago, just put them in distilled water minutes ago,…but I have a fish tank bubbler oxygenating the water,…for all ten of those seeds. I figured I would do all ten I bought, since they are “regular”, cause I didn’t want to do just five for instance and find out all five were males,…though, I want some males, to make more seeds of course.
Ya know, I am so ignorant sometimes,…several years ago when I saw the “root” coming out, I thought that was the shoot, and I planted seeds upside down,…that created a problem, where I killed a couple seeds.
