I'm just pointing out how ridiculous the idea of having to weigh every pot is. Whether or not it's actually over complicating things will depend on whether or not you can water plants without needing to go the distance of weighing the pots before and after.

In short, it makes total sense for you to do it. It's a waste of time for 99% of the rest of us.
You're not too bright.
 
You shouldn't need to add anything to a starter mix. Starter mixes should already have extra drainage so you shouldn't need the perlite.
Awaiting the dam seeds to germinate. It's been 3 days today being the 4th.. see a little crack with some white.. hoping they develop some more today while I am at work so I can put them into some soil when I get home tonight.

Sometimes that's all you'll see for the longest time. I'd plant them as is.
 
So taking the advice of all y'all and making the decision to go from germinated seed to soil by first picking a very neutral medium (fox farms light warrior and coco ) ((with the absolutely loving the coco)) I had complete success. Check out the pics and thank you all for the advice. Back right is auto-berry and remaining 2 are cali-kush fem.20180720_080213.jpg 20180720_080257.jpg
