First grow, looking for feedback

Hey all, I'm at 20v on 6 bagseeds. 5 out of 6 look to be in pretty good shape (not sure on the runt, possibly stunted or just mutated?). I'm using 3 gal pot with some organic soil mixed with apx 30% perlite. Vegging Under 300 true watt of mixed spectrum cfl apx 2in from tops. I've used no nutrients as of yet. Would like opinions on when to start nutrients. I'll be using ff trio. Also looking for advise on transplanting. I'm planning on transplanting after sexing plants. Will they recover ok from a transplant at that point? And should I stick with the no Nute plain soil I'm using and get on a feeding schedule or should I transplant into something like ffof? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Nice, personally i'd top them now but that's your call.
I topped 1 plant and have tried different fim techniques on 2 others. Will be topping the remainder in the next day or 2. Any input on the plant pictured with the stunted growth/mutation? Trying to figure out if there's something I can do to help it along. Thanks guys!

There's always one plant that goes a bit weird in my experience. I tend to just leave them to do their thing. Not all cannabis plants are uniform and symmetrical, and some of the ones that look a bit retarded during veg end up producing killer bud in the end.

Just feed her the same as the others and don't kill her with kindness. 99% of the time the plant will come around.

Awesome man thanks for the advice. Any ideas on when I should start a nute schedule? The cotyledons are starting to yellow so I was thinking within the next week or 2?

You can start nutes now. I use ff trio as well with floralicious, cal mag, and terpinator. Just start your nutes at 1/4 or 1/2 strength.

They look pretty good , but it looks like that soil seems to a little compacted.
FFOF could have been used from the start ( with the additional perlite ) to ENHANCE drainage and Aeration to growing root mass. Compacted soil adds the potential of Root Rot or Damp off conditions.

Keep in mind the height of your grow space ( they will have growth spurts during its life. )
Some strains can double and even triple in height and size. You can a nice size plant from 3 gallon pots.

These are bagseed grows :

You can LST or CAGE a plant to spread the branches out .

Sup all? Just checking in with an update. Bottom leaves have some yellowing. Looked to me like n def but would like some other opinions In case. Started with ff grow big at half recommend. Am I correct in thinking I shouldn't worry about the bottom leaves that are yellow and focus on new growth being healthy? I'm assuming I held a little to long on first feeding. I'm noticing a little droop in a couple in particular. Soil was pretty dry on those so I'm guessing they where just thirsty? Just watered. Any insight or info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys!
