The general rule is:
Less light
More water
Higher temperature
As the seedlings grow, you can gradually increase the light level (after 9-15 months).
I prefer to grow them warmer till they are close to blooming size. If you reduce the temperature sooner, they will just grow a little slower.
I do not reduce watering till they are adult plants.
