Mozarttea, I haven't used HF for a number of years, but remember it being pretty hot with nutrients for seedlings.
I also have never run either of those strains, so I didn't want to just chuck random info to you without experience.
From my experience, I generally don't feed seedlings for about three weeks, but my soil is packed with nutes. Trial and error, brotha. ATB!

no no . if you retransplant .. go get some light soil .. i live in the other side of the atlantic so i can't give you names of ones you have there .. but choose a light one...
and if you do , you must try to take out the much dirt as you can out of the roots .. gently ..
Cannabis are like stray weed's they are strong and real survivors .. you will be fine

i haven't put any nutrients in it yet, i do know HF has nutrients tho. do you think they have too many nutrients for the seedlings? i went straight from the seedlings to the HF in 4 gallon pots?

a soil with a light fertilization .. some soils are even specific for sprouting or that ones called Universal soil , dunno if u have it that in the states... that would do it .. search for the EC in the bag .. you will want something between 0.6 to 1.2 is ok
PS: adding some extra perlite to the soil wouldn't be a bad idea

how are they doing mozart ? are they recovering ?

still not much growth, the pots are still drying up. I haven't had a chance to go and find light soil, probably this evening or tomorrow morning. Thinking about doing the re transplant this weekend when i have plenty of time to sit down and give the attention they need. any other recommendations? should i mix with some perlite and soil as well?

yes of course , add an extra 30% perlite to the soil it will help with the overwatering issue and also will help with root growth for now ... when you transplant to the flowering pots you dont need to go that much on perlite if you dont want .. more perlite means you will water more often. but for now i think your plants will benefit from an extra perlite and aeration on the soil..

yes , after you transplant you should have from 4 to 7 days until the roots start growing in its new "home" after the roots are established and start growing you will see growth .. and if it goes well you will be very happy on how they can grow fast as hell ;P
I apreciate you keep me posted , thank you.

I Belive that some of them are in severe N toxicty , you see that Claw Shape leaves ? thats N toxicty , if you let your plants sit on that soil for more time i belive they will die.
Man if you can't find a bag of dirt just go to a near by garden or farm and collect a bit of soil and mix with perlite and take them out of there .. if you let them sit there for too long they will not recover.
You will probably have stray weeds begining to grow if you collect soil from a farm or garden but who cares ? .. you take them off..

yeah i always tell people that it is a weed and it is hard to kill. and i don't even take my own advice sometimes. i will go to the gardeners place today and get some regular soil and mix that with perlite and a little of the happy frog as well? or just dirt and perlite?

just have been letting them sit while figuring out what i can get over here. i was able to find perlite and thats about it for now. here are some sad looking pics i took just after the lights turned off, of course missed them by 2 minutes.. what do you think about the BeastGrow? where would you go from here?

flushing doesn't work as you think in fresh soil ... only in satured soil (soil that you are adding nutrients because your plant had already used all the resources of the soil, and when you flush you clean up away any nutrients added) ..in fresh slow sometimes you end up releasing even more nutrients into the roots .. because your soil is fresh and it still have alot of slow releasing nutrients in it ... thats why most soil will cover all your vegetative without needing more ferts ...
Think in this , in gardens you can put a top layer of manure to fertilize your soil .
How does this work ? when you water over that fresh manure you will release nutrients to the soil.
Nutrients contained in manure and fresh soil are not so quickly dissolved as soluble nutrients thats why they can feed your plant for soo long.
