Secondly?.the soil looks dry. Peat pots transpire a lot of moisture very rapidly?.and peat is very low ph to begin with?..maybe the best thing would be to go to plastic pots in the future.
I pretty much agree...
I usually keep four to six seedlings per 23w CFL lamp. What you have is overkill, and you're going to fry 'em.
Keep your seedling's soil moist.
No nutrients for about 4-6 weeks.

I'm not a champoin of anything, but Miracle Grow has a bum rap. If an idiot newbie (like me) can easily learn to grow cannabis with the stuff, anyone can. All it takes is a little bit of dialing-in, and acclimating yourself to properly using nutrients. It's a learning curve regardless of a gardeners choice of medium or nutrients. Your learning curve required you to cut the FFOF in half. Why? Was it because you felt the FFOF was too hot for seedlings and clones?

If I'm not mistaken (and I'm not) FFOF is a pre-nuted mix akin to Miracle Grow. (organic sources of nutrients aside) Both are a slow release mix. Please, tell me the difference between the nutrients in the FFOF, and the nutrients in the MG.
I'm willing to bet you don't give additional nutrients for a few weeks, at the very least. If so, you risk frying them with the nutrients, or severe stretching, or possibly stunting and abnormal growth...

Kinda looks like you're supporting the MG concept, just not embracing the MG name or inorganic source. Chemical compounds are chemical compounds, regardless if organic or inorganic sources. Plants do not and can not distinguish between the two. Sitting side by side, if MG is cheaper than the FFOF, I'm going MG. (unless it's the 6 month mix...I'm not sure I'd go THAT far, lol)
