Problem is, there's no telling how much fert is released versus how much the plant needs/used already.
This 'balance' will change over time.

Good luck!
when i transplant them i plan on doing a half/n half mix of crap walmart soil and mircle grow.. that way the nute hit shouldnt be so bad while they are still in early stages.

I'll be doing that next week i think judging by growth on the MC one.. fornow i'm increasing my waterings to a good drenching every other day and mutliple misting sessions with a spray bottle inbetween (super low humidity and the fan & hot shop light are drying this small amount of soil out fast)

I also added about an 1.5" of MC potting soil to the top of each cup. giving a little more soil to stablize the stems and add very small amounts of nutes to the plants that didnt get to stay in the MC soil. I may be seeing early stages of burning on my bigger plant from being in this soil for so long, or it might be under watering (these things dry out fast!)
