Ok, so they (3 of them, 2 seeds in back up in case I horribly screw up) are about 2 and a half weeks old, started in 9oz dixie cups, now in 32 oz. Wal*Mart Deli cups (I work there, got em for free. :P) WL Skunk #1 Fems. Under 6 32 watt 6500k 4 foot flouro tubes. *a note on the last pic, I consider her my runt, she took an unfortunate tumble out of her cup (damn overly curious cat...) a few days after she sprouted. Anyway, how's it look?

Hell yea mate, your going strong!

Just for some quick tips, this is my personal list of the most common newbie mistakes:

- Over/Under-watering (Over-watering is more common than under-watering)
- Over feeding/fertilizing
- Having lights so close that the plants tops get burnt / Having them so far away that the plant has to stretch for light.
- Making the situation too complicated too quickly (Actually a lot of more experienced growers tend to make things more complicated than they need to be too haha)

Doesn't look like you've made any of these mistakes yet.
Cheers.

Ok, updated status check. :D

I have added 6 23 watt cfl at the advised spectrum, in the 6k range anyway(can't remember exactly what it said on the package, been hitting the bottle a bit :D) on top of the flouro tubes.

Since last post they have been fed 2 times, once with Alaska Fish fertilizer (I got it till my fox farms trio pack got here. Once with Fish fert, then once with plain water then the latest time (2 days ago) with Fox Farms big bloom and Grow Big.

Oh also, since last post they have been transplanted into 10" pots. :D

They look a bit droopy, probably because I was overeager to get the Fox Farms into them and I may have a slight case of overwatering, but other than that, hows it looking? I am new to this (though I did try to read up well), so if you see any signs of any sort of problem or warning signs of a potential future problem any advice is accepted. :D
