Wait until you get a full set of leaves...then transplant. The roots are not strong enough yet to handle the stress. JUST MY OPINION!:thumbsup:

I agree with Martyr. You have a few weeks to go before transplanting, at least two. If you transplant now you will destroy the roots. The idea of transplanting is to give the roots more room to grow. If they aren't hitting the side walls then they still have plenty of room to grow. The tap-root (the main, long, central, root) grows to the bottom of any pot very quickly.

They appear to be indica-dominant strains but its absolutely impossible to tell at this stage. The same strain grow in slightly different environments can look completely different.

ahhh oky so in da cups they stay then for anthoer couple weeks...
Thankfully the cups their in are see threw so ill notice if they do become root bound (notice the paper towels around some of the cups) heard if roots get light = bad

Thanks for the advice guys!

Are there drainage holes in the cups?
No nutrients yet...too young.
Got a fan on 'em?

Might want to do something about the stretch: Seedling Stretch Fix... (http://boards.cannabis.com/indoor-growing/169249-indoor-closet-grow-suggestions-help.html#post1974225)
