im pretty sure i know why yours are bigger, b/c b4 u put yours under the 400w mh, mine & yours where about the same size, + i think i overwatered mine a little, b/c i got worried about them drying out overnight (1 did & died). im debating weather or not if i should put them under 1 of my 150w hps or both my 150w hps's for 300w, or my 400w hps. im a little worried about their health, they are a little light in color, & they are on 1/8th strength nutes & showing signs of nute burn, so i cant up it to 1/4 strength. though they are starting to perk up, now that the roots are down in the soil. i wish they made a 150w mh conversion bulb, b/c i would switch to that.

Yeah mine were at days 4 & 5 when I TX to the 16oz cups & showed them the 400w MH. They really started to come alive at the point.

Yours were drying out overnight? I had the same issue so I took std white printer paper & cut out circles just a little bigger than my cups, folded them in half & cut out a small half-circle from the middle so that when unfolded there is a round hole in the center for the stem to pass thru, then cut along one of the folds from edge to center so you can place it around the seedlings. They really worked well for me, held moisture for a couple of days with them on.

Heres a pic.....

Yeah, 4 of them about 1/4" each.....although I think I'll do 5 next time, with one in the center. Seems to work out pretty well. My only question about the paper lids was if they were holding in TOO much moisture because I had some leaves wilting, but as it turns out they were getting root bound....after TX they are loving life again!

Can i get in on this youngster thingy,although my girls were clones,their still my girls and I'm very proud of the ones...... I didn't KILL!!

There 27 today and will be mothers under only T5s.

JCJ: you still using the MG organic mix??? How long has it been if you used the FFOF?

With all the less than perfect results you should try some cause it holds moisture GREAT and drains very well with 20% perlite as well.
