Default Lotus seed germination

How warm is the room you're keeping them in? My lotus (in pond) don't do
much until the water is up in the mid-70's. ~ jan

Unfortunately we should wait for at least 3 - 4 months to get some sun
around here!!!

Interesting thing I see - there are 3 - 4 leaf stems in the last 2
weeks. However, the leaf pads havent unfurled yet? Should I switch to
some other grow light?

Which spectrum of the light is helpful for lotus seedlings? I guess I
should delay fertilizing further before the the leaves unfurl
completely.

I only want to feed them enough to keep them going for next few months.
That way they are started and ready to go when Summer is here!
