Yo Ho potman,
I just finished looking over your posts, and I see some areas where I think your going to get bit in the butt.
1. Your using miracle grow potting mix, ( this usually comes pre-ferted. ( NOT good for babies.)
2. I see a couple other ferts that you got, and hopefully you have not blended them into the potting soil also.
3. Take a careful look at the dirt along the edge of your small containers, See how the soil is pulling away from the side of the container ? This is dry potting soil friend, and you can lose what little moisture that small amount of soil can hold from having the babies in to small of a container.
4. Need more light friend, those babies will need a bit more than what your giving them.
I like to recommend that folks start their sprouts in a peat plug, and then when they are the size that yours are transplant them each into a container that is at minimum a 3 gallon container, stop all the excessive transplanting as it only stresses your babies, and you can risk a hermie due to the stress.
I like to also recommend that you learn to make your own soil mix, or go with a neutral Fox Farms. I make my own mixes as the different strains call for different set ups.
I mix in these ratios as a base, though I do alter it sometimes a lot depending on what my goal is, here is a good basic mix;
In one 3 gallon container I blend
1. 1/2 rich soil chemically clean (no ferts)
2. 1/4 perlite for the airation
3. 1/4 coarse sand
4. 1/4 cup bone meal
You must put some broken chunks of clay pots down at the bottom before you put the soil in the container, this will allow for better drainage.
For lighting puposes, CFL's work great for the vegging and I like to have a 90 watt LED in there also. You might consider running the lights during the veg at 24/7 until you are ready to flip your ladies over to 12/12.
Just my $0.02 Good luck and good growing
smoke in peace
