Sorry, this page is under heavy (and recent) construction.  If you're interested in the equipment I decided to use, you'll find that information here.  Seeds are Persian Whites, soil is a blend of topsoil, steer manure, vermiculite, and a weak pesticide (I'd like to avoid going sterile, or losing a kidney, after viewing...).  I decided to use three 36" plastic planters, and filled them with the soil mixture, until I achieved a soil depth of roughly 6".  I then sprinkled the seeds down the center of each planter, and placed roughly another 1/4" of soil onto the sewn seeds.  After watering them, I turned on the electronics (a Hydrofarm fluorescent fixture with a 200W daylight fluorescent bulb, and a small, oscillating fan, both of which are connected to a timer), and let nature take its course (after one of our cats decided to sneak into the closet and walk on the freshly sewn seeds...).

Its not quite the end of Week 1, yet, but I'll be sure to update as soon as it is!
