Checked on my japaleno and serrano seeds 4-5 days in, the white bit looks fuzzy. Could it be mold? When testing the HID the temperature was around 34c an hour or so.
I put them back in the ziplock bag, they should be green sprouts right?

Ripped a branch of my bigger plant while picking chilies. I'm gonna see if I can keep it alive, Should I remove fruits leaves etc?

I think I'll move them right under the bulb.
 
Things are looking good, ordered some reflective plastic and a 400w MH bulb Sunmaster "cool deluxe" 
 
Cheers! :party:
 
Did you find cheap perlite in bulk or did you buy the small bag for 80 SEK as well? 
 
Looks like you have nice healthy seedlings.
 
One week later, Got the HID up and running, 400w MH.
