looks good, got a fan on those ? the stems look a little thin but not bad for 3 weeks, careful using soil with nutrients/fertilizer for starting plants, seedlings are sensitive and need to be introduced to fertilizer with a 1/4 - half dose. that may be the cause of your leaf staining but i'm definately not the one to ask on that. lookin good though , for ....bagseed?

nice... lookin good! only advise I can give is separate those plants into individual containers... and make sure you have some good air movement... other then that have fun with it... learn your own way of doing things... thats what I am doing I am taking all the advise I can get and applying it to my own concepts. look through my thread you will see what I mean. cant wait to see these guys get bigger! shit cant wait to see my own get bigger haha.
