Why are you being a jerk? Lol. It has been winter and cold outside. And in ohio its cold. I'm asking if they will get more light inside with my grow lights or outside with thick cloud coverage. It's an honest question and I'm just looking for help, not some random jerk on the internet.. but whatever makes you happy mate. I guess every where on the internet has trolls even ones who feel like being one on a gardening forum lol what the hell
Why so rude? ... You’ve had polite answers to your questions and lots more good advice from experienced growers who have given up their time to help you.
What a shame.

I'm very thankful for all the great advice and answers! Just as a newbie already embarrassed to ask simple questions its not very welcoming to have someone come back and treat me like im stupid lol
Im not really the one being rude here.
Also, I have them outside right now.
& to clarify, the Tomato Maker product from Plant Doctor gives me these instructions, (Note that this product states that it "Treats up to 30 Plants from seedling to Harvest):
"For your first application on young plants from seed or transplant, evenly sprinkle 2 tablespoon in a 4" diameter around the base of the plant, avoiding placement of fertilizer next to stem. Water thoroughly."
Does anyone have experience with this product? I believe i start feeding after they get their fist set of "True Leaves" - correct?
I'm really not trying to argue I'm just asking that person why they were rude.. maybe you just missed the sarcasm, I don't know. Maybe it is the separation of our language and it's use, if so I apologize. I'm not an argumentative person, I just felt patronized. I really do appreciate all the advice
Barry island said this, which seemed to be a swipe at me: "I heard that plants get more light being outside on a cloudy day than they will indoors on a sunny day, seems strange but I think that it's true."
Not obvious to everyone and anyway it depends on a lot of things ... size of windows, quality of glass, aspect of room and consequent light direction ...
Honestly I really can’t see what @barry island wrote as being a swipe at you. He’s a long-standing regular on the forum and I’m not aware of him being anything but helpful.
I really think you’ve misunderstood what he was saying.
I hope your tomatoes do well for you.

In my opinion, barry island was really helpful, it is not obvious and no one here knows about your location or weather.
Anyway, tomatoes are easy, no need to stress about them. No matter what you do, as long as they survive (and they can survive a lot), they will grow quickly into a healthy and big plant. Sometimes, it's better to give seedlings a bit of neglect (not too much to kill them, of course). They won't need any feeding for at least another month or month and a half.

This is a friendly forum and we like helping and encouraging new and less experienced gardeners.
What do you think was patronising?
Not sure if you’re aware that most of us are in the UK?
Maybe something got lost ‘in translation’? Who was it said that the UK and the US are divided by a common language?

Because obviously it's true what they said..
