They will be fine. Trust me when we all say more holes. You WILL regret not putting more holes. 100% chance you will regret it. Misting will be good till the first leaves are out and the seconds are starting. The little round ones dont count. Then you will need to water them, and you will most likely drown them. You have heavy soil, no perlite, and not enough holes. More holes the better, cover the bottoms in holes. 1/2" at least, big enough to put atleast your pinky through. We want these babies to live.

You can put rocks about 2-3inches of 1/2" to 3/4" rocks in the botttom of each bucket before the soil. From outside is good, but washed out good. With tons of holes in the bottom the rocks wont fall out, but they let water pass through easier, and keep the holes from plugging up. You can also wash your rocks in one of the buckets in a tub or sink. Its like a big strainer. But the point, HOLES! need lots of them. The picture i sent wasnt exaggerating.

As D.gotti said, you will not regret more holes in there but your plants will suffer from a lack of drainage. If the water cannot escape, it sits there and becomes stagnant and then you have a huge problem. as for nutrients, do not add any for the first month. the soil should have plenty of nutrients to feed the seedlings.

[D.Gotti]

He is right i forgot your using soil with nutes so you dont need any for a while.

im working on holes give me one or two more days the 4th plan t finally sprouted sprayd a tiny bit of water on it its been 8 days so i think its time for HID light but didnt get door for the stealth yet

 

[D.Gotti]

you have to fill the bucket more on the tall ones. up to the bottom of the leaves.

 

[Withthebiscuit]

when i fill it up with soil would i have to use the same soil i bought before its called "Expert Gardener"

 

[D.Gotti]

yes add the same stuff.

 

[Withthebiscuit]

its looking great! under the 400w cant wait to stealth door more!
the highest its been is 86F would a 4 inch in-line do the trick?
also just ordered dryer vents with ducting
also powerdrilling holes tomorrow for major watering!

more drainage holes and tried to help out vent my towel room was right behind the closet so i put one of those little vacuum tube thing through hopefully it does something lol

 

[D.Gotti]

NICE HOLES! thats what im talking about, not pretty but plenty of drainage. the towel room vent is better than nothing for now. is it "your" towel room or a shared one?

only "mine" anyway i can get that towel room more in the closet

 

[D.Gotti]

if your the only one that goes in there, you can run the vents through the wall into the towel room, instead of through the door. no need to buy a new door, and its less noticeable.

you just have to patch holes before you move out.

 

[Withthebiscuit]

so instead of two dryer vents on the door jsut have one on the door(at the top)
and another at the bottom where the tube is

 

[D.Gotti]

if your looking at the closet,what wall is against the towel room? can you put the fan and vent through the wall up high going into the towel room and a vent in the bottom where you have one. so you dont have any vents in the door. is the towel room the bathroom or the actual towel room for linens?

 

[Withthebiscuit]

like a roomw ith towels n etc and i really cant have it showing so i would need it to be @ the bottom really dont care where the vent goes on the door. the towel room has cold air so thats why u put the tube at the bottom to get more fo that

 

[D.Gotti]

i would do one vent in the top of the door and one in the bottom of the wall where you made the hole. that would work good.
