yes i have
put them in pots if not pots then plastic cup then you won't need to have sticks holding them up plant them so only 5or 6 cm of plant is above the soil there is a lot you could learn from reading the growFAQs

yep if you plant them low in the cup/pot then the stem will have extra support also cut a few holes into the cups at the bottom to aid drainage and it helps to stop over watering

i grow indoors so i can not help you much and i am on my first grow but this i know will help

light can penitrate then first 2-3in of soil so in that bowl your roots are more than likely to be getting some light to them which is not good

Your not very generous with the soil.

I wouldn't keep them in plastic cups for more than one more week or so.

alright, and for the light factor they dont get the same amount of light each day.. hope that doesnt matter... but it all comes down to the end.. weather they are female or male plants, we shall see.

hi again they are better now than they were

1 have you put holes in them cups you will need to if it rains the cups will become waterlogged and drown them also if you have raise them off the tray a little this will stop them sitting in runoff (the water that is in the tray)

2 as the plants grow add soil and the root will utilize the the extra space you will need some bigger containers over the next 2 weeks if every thing goes well

how many hour of light do they get on average

this might help
GROWFAQ

hope it goes well Have Fun

yeah, I put holes in the bottom of the cups and they get about 9 hours of full sunlight a day, its very humid here so the soil is damp all the time and it never dries out. thanks again for the help :)

This is my second grow. I used the styrophome cups with the holes in the bottom for my seedlings, but next time I am going to start them in the same pots they will stay in until they go into the ground. It is good you are putting them outside during the day. Whats wrong with night as well. Is it still too cold where you are. I have also found that if you start them out in the sun and wind, they become much heartier, stronger and more full of life. Is this the life or what? :peace:

nice.. well what I do is I keep them behind a screen patio area during the night/rain, and when the sun is out i put them outside of the patio area into the blazing sun, I thought if I just leave them outside, they will drown by the rain or get eatin alive by insects, after this grow I will only grow inside under a 400w HPS light :) oh, and I will always update and upload more pics to keep you all updated, thanks for the tips :)
