Big thread of Fig seedling's

I don't have updated pictures right now, but I have 500 seedling split between Albanian Black cherry ad Feather river. I ordered 10 inch root trainer pots and a rack that holds 98 pods each, I have 1 for ABC and 1 for FR. I started up potting these inside, in my grow room. when I finished 98 of the FR, I brought a tray of the ABC's in to start on them. They were in the grow room for about 3 weeks and I hadn't done anything with them except keep them watered. A couple weeks ago I decided to move them all back out to the green house. What I noticed was a huge difference in the way they grow. In the green house they get tall and lanky, even though I have 40% shade cloth covering the GH. and they have very long straight tape roots and corresponding roots. When I up potted the tray I took inside, I noticed the plant was much greener, with a much stiffer stalk. The root was more of a conformed root ball versus long lanky roots, and they were much thicker roots. I may move all of them inside just based on their growth habits between the 2 locations.

Sorry if this is an obvious newbie question, but your leaves look more like my Afghanistan fig (named variety but person who I got it from could not remember the specific name). I wonder if that highly serrated leaf is typical of Afghani figs?

Here is mine for reference. It has this really cool frosty looking edging on its leaves.

Mine are all seedlings and not named. Ice Crystal is a named variety here and europe. Maybe you picked up that one? By the way. Not a newbie question at all.

Stunning leaves!

Also, we're pretty question-friendly around here :)
