A couple of things.... Don't plant so deep into the party cups. The air becomes stagnant and the plant can't transpire properly. Your fan does little for strengthening the stems either. Leaves tend to drop when they need water or if they are being over watered. Kind of ironic I know, but you should know which is the case better than us. Are you watering every day?

Food: The discoloration can be PH, but is more likely to be an N deficiency. My strain took about 14 days to show discoloration before it's first feeding.

Keep in mind that MJ has a tap root that needs room to grow. You have those planted at the bottom of the cups leaving the tap root no room. I'd repot those asap and begin a week feeding of plant food.

To moist, and not enough nitrogen. Might be to wet, for your young tree to establish roots, root rot. This could stunt root growth. Whats under that tin of yours?

If you have to cover them because you're not available all the time and you are taking precautions not to let them dry out, make sure you have an air hole, next to the top of the soil about as big around as a cigarette. You can only keep seedlings the way your doing it for so long then you have to give them more room to breath. You can make a plastic box using a clear plastic garbage bag that will serve you the same way. A two inch hole in the bag is usually enough(in the lowest part of the mini-greenhouse) for ventilation. Eventually you will have to find an easy way to water them using timers and stuff.

Always water in new transplants. It ensures no air pockets near the roots. Water well and don't water for 2-3 days.

I like to let the soil get dry before transplanting. Otherwise the wet soil disintegrates as you are getting it out of the cup. Drier dirt has a higher chance of staying in one nice ball, in the shape of the cup. Weird decision not to fill the beer cup with soil to the top.

BTW, I usually use scissors to cut up the beer cup when transplanting. I just cut it at the top in multiple places and peel the edge down to the bottom. It frees the entire thing for easy transplanting.
