First time grower here.... I ordered some clones April 1st, just picked them up today. They have been growing indoor but i will be placing them outdoor, what do they look like they need? Some have a tint of yellow and some have a few curled leaves?I have a crap load of good organic soil i picked up from a local shop with a new drip system set up on timers. Any info will be appreciated thanks!

looks like whoever cloned them did a bad job at taking care of them. Transplant them into some real pots and let them do their thing.

^^^ I would Agree with that. Looks like whatever plant they were taken from was severely malnourished and they didn't take much care into the cloning process. Get them out of those cups and into soil. May want to low light them indoors under t5's or the likes after the re-potting for a few weeks to allow them to re establish their roots and get healthy. Dropping them outside now will only hurt you after months of tedious care.

I was going to drop them outdoor in shade only so they get used to the outdoors for about a week, then put them in the ground, should i put them in the organic soil now in their cups?
 
yes go ahead and transplant them into new cups with organic soil. and about you putting them outside; i would wait unitl theyve adjusted to their new cups and soil. a little trick that will get them used to being outdoors is take some of the soil that is in your outdoor growsite and mix it in the with organic soil. it helps adjust to what is in the native soil and if you want to you can put them outside for an hour or two a day to harden them and get them used to the sun. even though it sounds complicated its worth not stressing your plants too much and ending up with hermies. I mean could you imagine if someone put a new home underneath you and then put you in an alien enviroment. haha.

Yes. The dirt outside has bacteria that is native to your area. When mixing it into the soil you are introducing that bacteria to the plant. Organics is all based on the bacterial/micro organism environment in he soil so it will be helpful to get your local critters on those roots ASAP. When he mentioned above that it was a little trick, you are just tryin to minimize the shock the plant will go through when you come out of those pots and into the ground.
