Grab a pencil and jab it into the pot loosing the soil all around the plant. You could grab the plant tipping the pot over and re poting Or give us some more info and maybe its a feed her kind of thing.

Ok I feel stupid. Dude its a cup a cup of fucking dirt!!! In a plastic cup for rice sakes. Here I thought you had a 5 gal container filled with dirt and had packed it tight and all you have is a red plastic cup. COMMON SENSE!!!

damn help the dude.
first of all. you shouldnt be using miracle grow, anything. in my opinion. secondly. if you packed the soil, dont! just keep watering them when the cup is light. and you should be fine.
