I only have one grow under my belt, it was Northern Lights.

I also use 42w CFLs, and I got great results. I would advise only feeding those seedlings just plain PH'd water for about 3 weeks before giving them any nutrients/plant food/salts.

I also would advise staying away from Miracle Grow soil. The only experience I had with it was a bad one- lots of bugs inside, with nutrients in the soil that you can't control. That doesn't mean you are screwed, judging by your seedlings you can grow healthy plants in there, it just might take a while.

Good luck, keep everyone updated.

Lighting sounds good. If you're using MG soil don't be tempted to feed them! it wont make them grow any faster it will just overload them with nutrients. Give them a few weeks before you start to introduce any nutrients. Take care with the epsoms, I'd be wary of watering it into the soil its far better to use it as an occassional foliar spray on the leaf as and when needed. Again, you don't want to build up salt levels in the soil. Don't try to push them too hard, let nature do its stuff

Very best of luck, hope this helps in some way. I LOVE NL myself, you might care to take a look at my thread (link below).
