I need help by people who want to help

Ok I'm liking all the input I'm receiving here. So the next question is I now have MG organic should I return it for two bags of moisture control or just suck it up and buy a bag of perlite to add? I would assume I have less risk in continuing to use the moisture control. rather than changing?
 
I placed three germinated seeds in solo cups, 12 days ago under at the time one 26w 6500k CFL all and in MG moisture control soil. I have been able to keep temps between 70-75 overall more like 75-80 beneath bulbs (plants height) I've tried to keep the RH around 50-60 typically near the 60's. At what I call a few days age I added another CFL bulb, a few days later I added two additional bulbs. Of course I adjusted height each time to ensure I was not cooking the plants. The largest seedling has over ten sets of leaves and many sets forming beneath the exsisting sets and ehat appears to be a abundance of growth coming form the top of the "stalk" excuse my ignorance while the other two seedling are just a few sets behind. I think I should be concerned with root size soon so I have purchase a few larger pots and miracle grow organic soil. I know miracle grow is frowned upon but I WILL use it because I can not justify spending 20 on a bag of FF when MG is 5 I realize you get what you pay for BUT you have to realized I can't drop insane amounts of money to try something the first time? I'm just looking for some actually input form people that want to help not trash talk the fact Im not made of money nor do I believe you must spend ample amounts of cash on everything in life.

Paragraph breaks please. Cannot read.

From what I've seen of mine, there is a big difference even in the moisture control when perlite is added.
My last 2 plants I also had in the MC soil, but didn't add perlite, and the drainage wasn't as good as now where I have about 40% perlite.
I haven't had any burning issues, nor have I had any PH problems.
If I was you, I would take the 2 bags back and trade for the moisture control.
Anyway, for the large bag os MC, it's only 6 or 7 bucks if I remember right.
 
What up bro :bigjoint: how many watts of CFL do you have total??? You will get much better results with a brand new HPS bulb and ballast.. just wondering why you chose fluoros. Ventilation issues? Just trying to figure out your setup bro.. :peace:
Hey man.
Originally, I hadn't planned on it getting this big, but my space restrictions, temps and cash, this was easier for a first indoor grow that started out just to be something to do through the winter.
Also, I plan to use the CFL's to veg 2 or 3 for outdoors in a month and half or so, whenever this is done.
I've got a total of 305w, a couple of the clamp lights I had, a friend gave me the 2 bath fixtures, and the rest, 2 side mount fixtures and bulbs has only cost me about 80 bucks..
