I just went and baught a box of this stuff called E.B. Stone Organics Bat Guano. The guy at the gardening store was a stoner that knew what i was up to and grew also, so He told me his best knowledge on what to get for Vegetation.

It is a black powder and i plan to add that in with my water. It is a 9-2-1 ratio % for N, P, and Potasium so should i be using this every time i water or every other time. Which is usally every 3 days or so.

I have 2 clones that having been planted for 8 days in regular flowering soil, in 3 gallon pots and has a little perlite in the soil but hardly nothing. So i wanted to get some nutes for vegetation, so they would start to grow stronger and faster.. The clones started out at 4 and 5 inches and havnt grown much in hieght but plants have more leaves and branches and look relatively healthy. ANy advice would be nice. I will post pics soon.


My conditions:

-2 twisty compact 20 watts (same as 75 watt bulbs, NO HEAT)
-temps: lights on 80* and lights off 70*(heater at night)
-constant breeze with small fan in bottom of greenhouse(3x3x5) . Greenhouse in mini House( 15ft. x 7 ft. x 8ft)
-humidity is around 50-60%

Your compacts will not be enough obviously for explosive growth. Try some 4' cool white flourescents and keep them close to the tops. 2'' or so. T5 lamps are great for veg. I use full spectrum HID to great success with my veg. 400 watts HPS and 400 watts MH.
You can go as low as 60* at night. 78* daytime is optimal. 40% humidity is also optimal. 1800 ppm Co2 flowering is maximum saturation.
Guano is a great addative and will supply quality nitrogen to your soil. But make sure you wear a respirator or a dust mask and don't get it on your mouth or you'll get sicker than a dog...trust me on this one.
You might want to get a quality 2 part veg. nute such as Advanced Nutrients
sensi 2 part. I've also used Big Foot with good success. General Hydro is also quality. Remember not to overfeed your babies. think "toddler" or "newborn"
250 to 400 ppm for rooted clones and seedlings. 400 to 600 ppm for the 3rd week and gradually increase ppm week to week. The bigger the leaves and the more of them the more ppm it can take. I let my plants veg for at least 7 weeks before I trigger flowering. Just like a grape vine...the older the vine the bigger the yeild of grapes, the more wine you can produce per plant.
Feeding every 3 days is good. but if your room gets too warm, you might need to feed more often.
