60 percent is great for transpiration, which is necessary for nutrient uptake. While it is fairly bad for mold and bacteria that could form on the leaves. So don't try to increase humidity let your plants do their thing

alot of ppl use MG, its nt recommended bt u gota go wi wat u gt, the only prob with it is that it could cause nute burn, u have no control over the nutrients ur plant recieves.
shud think ul be ok but its all learning, nxt grow id go with the plain soil, it gives u the choices,
if ur plant starts geting nute burn then i would transplant leaving as much mg soil behind as possible and get it into some plain soil, but of corse by this time it could be too late.

Yeah miracle grow can get the job done but it isn't produced with the purpose in mind. The balance of nutrients is wack which can cause lock outs and burns.

Go to a local hydro and pick up the best bang for your buck, GH flora series.

Its like 20 bucks a litre and will last you a long time unless you are growing many plants.

But before you start watering with other nutrients you should wait and make sure to flush out some of the MG with PH adjusted water.

Also when you transplant think about getting some good soil with perlite mixed in.

Since you are growing in soil only dose with nutrients if they start showing need.

If you transplant into something like coco then you will want to feed nutrients almost like a hydro. If you do it correctly with soil however you don't really need to feed at all. They are transplanted going into flower and the added soil is generally the correct balance of nutrients to get them off. This takes almost as much practice to do as a hydro set up. Soil you just get less practice at mixing good solutions.

How is the drainage on those cups? I might poke some holes in the sides for increased air since MG doesn't have much perlite.
