A few lighting questions?

OK so my 400 MH came in the mail a long with a few other goodies, and my plants are about 9 days old and have been under soft white CFLs. I'm wanting to move them under the MH to keep them from stretching anymore, but I don't want to put them under it too soon. Will these 9 days old seedlings be ok under the MH, and if so how far away from the plants should the light be?

Also should I wait for the seedlings to adapt to the MH light before I transplant from their 12oz cups to 1 gal pots?

I had my plants in 16oz cupz for two weeks b4 needing to transplant.
But i use my 400watt hps for the entire grow, just keep it at least a foot
away from the plant. If it burns your hand it will probably burn the plant.
