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.
