is it too late to switch?

Transplanting won't kill your plants assuming you don't rip off all the roots....Transplanting will just stress the plants a bit, making the growth slow or stop for about a week or so. Transplanting for nothing is not ideal though..Personally I wouldn't recommend miracle grow..

What kinda soil are they in now?

Oh, I get it now. I thought he was asking if he could transplant them into miracle grow.

The thing with Miracle grow is that it's east to burn the seedlings from nute burn as the soil has fertilizers in it. Small seedlings do not need fertz. Your seedlings already have signs of nute burn (the yellowing of the tips of the leaves

I put every single one of my plants grown from seed straight under my 400 watt HPS. I only do fluorescents with clones as they have no roots
