Nice pics, but plants seem small, and lights are dim.
 
Haha... ive been trying to add these pics for the longest but they wont seem to load from my phone
 
There only a few wks old but i guess the only thing ive had on my mind is the nutes. Will they be fine without any? I wasnt planning on growing them too big or anything.

In FFOF, you shouldn't need to feed for at least 3 weeks.
I start mine in MG soil, and usually start feeding around 22 days IF they start to look hungry.
 
A mistake on my behalf... before my next watering should i replant them adding soil to lift them higher in the pots

Naw, just leave them be.
I just like to plant mine close to the top, so the plant can fill the WHOLE cup or pot with roots, not just half.
Hopefully you won't need to, but if they stretch, you can just add soil to help the stem support the weight of the leafs.
 
If you wanted to, maybe in a month or so, shake one out and see what the roots look like and put more soil underneath.

What was the intended size of your final pots?

If you were planning on increasing pot size I'd let them ride a week and do it. A real good rule of thumb is to let the leaves get to the edge of the pot, or better yet a bit beyond, and they are prime for transplanting.

If this was meant to be your final pot size I'd still wait that week and repot in the same pot, adding as much soil as you can underneath the roots.

Bigger pots grow bigger root systems, that grow more foliage, that produces more bud, which is the goal here right?

I figured if I told him wait a month or so, then either way, it'd be easier and less chance of shock to the plant for a newb (no offense OP).
 
All input & advice is welcomed! :-)
Im thinking i might upsize one time to a little larger pot but havent decided or maybe just leave in the ones they are in & add more soil.
My next grow i want to get some GOOD KNOWN BEANS to throw in, if i can find where to get them or maybe start from some clones
 
Maybe it was the camera, but for all those bulbs it didnt seem that bright in there. Op, you asked about nutes. Maxibloom Dry from General Hydroponics. Easy and simple for a first time grower. tsp/gallon from seed to flower. Good luck!!
