Ok first pic is the sprout 4 days old 26mm tall second one is to show it's pot, should I buy a new pot if so what size? I'm going to HD (today) so a fast reply would help alot! I'll need some better soil if I transplant into a diff pot, what should I look for when reading the labels on the soil???? Third pic is of my T5 NewWave 2foot 4 tube 96watts 8000lumens PSF and 2 23watt CFLs all together I think its around 11,600lumens PSF & the fourth pic is basicly the same with all the lights on. Temps around 70-76f lights on(trying to lower) when at HD I will look into a new fan, soil, (maybe)2 more lights hopefully 3000k, and some new pot(s) as well.. All the advice given is much help, Thank You! Also hows the baby look for 4 days old? :peace::joint:

I use this mix:
  1. 50 o/o Miracle Grow Patio mix
  2. 20 o/o Bat Guano
  3. 10 o/o organic seafood fertilizer
  4. 10 o/o Perlite
  5. 5 o/o sand
  6. 5 o/o organic Mix ( roots, bark, ect.
I use a mini 400w hps for light and test the PH in my soil hope this helps

Also, I'd say you should pick up a 3 gallon pot, big enough that you won't have to transplant and risk disturbing the plant again. MG isn't bad for seedlings, its what I use and it works just great.

I use the mircale grow moisture control. It absorbs and holds water better. It also has 3 months worth of plant food in the soil, a plus for seedlings.

Hd has a pretty decent selection of organic soils too if that interests you at all... Also a good idea too though, look at a local nursery if possible.

Yah, ANYTHING miracle grow = bad, just dont do it, if you get decent results with it, you will only get way better with something desighned for cannabis.
I FUCKING HATE MRACLE GROW. WHY DO PEOPLE THINK ITS SO CHEAP, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR WITH NUTES. if good soil components or mixes arent available get something with no slow release nutes, thats why mracle grow soil is bad. Not only is it miracle grow nutes, but it slow releases for 9 months, mmmmmmmmm that will be tasty, good ole chemicals. Cant flush slow release now can ya.

In the end though, to avoid possible HUGE probs and bigger yields, dont use miracle grow
