First and foremost, here are some pictures --

Top image is general setup. What you see is a 350w LED light and, to the left, a blade-less tower fan.
Didn't really know of the best way to take any pictures, so hopefully the bottom two pictures give a general idea. Not sure when I started, but these plants are pretty young. What you see is a mix of red bhut, yellow bhut, fatali, regular hab, chocolate hab, and one trinidad douglah. The middle image shows one half of my crop, the bottom the other. From the middle picture, two of my plants, a regular hab and fatali (front two, second column), seem to be on roids compared to everything else. These two have roots coming out of the drainage holes in the solo cups. Should I do anything about this? Was planning on keeping everything in solo cups until I can get some 5 gallon fabric pots ordered to plant out in May.
Otherwise, how does everything else look? To me, things look good, but this is my first year so I want other opinions. Growth seems to have slowed down quite a bit from the beginning stages, which I think is normal, but at this rate I think the plants will still be too small to move outside in May. Would you recommend some bone meal or any other fert at this point?
Another quick note, I'm practically out of grow room, so I move the cups around every couple of days so the ones near the edges get some of that sweet center spotlight. Was also a little worried because all my red bhuts have a purplish tint to their leaves. Yellow bhuts didn't have this, so at first I assumed light burn, but none of the other plants seem to mind. Chalking this up as normal coloring...
The chocolate habs and douglah just sprouted, as evident from the bottom image. Douglah (that tiny thing just visible in the back row) has been out for a little while longer compared to the chocolate habs, but is much tinier. I fear I may have pulled him from the propagator too early, but he looks to be setting some new leaves, so I hope all is good.
So yeah, how are things looking for me? Any tips or advice? Going forward, I should probably start a glog...
