Arrow Grow Medium and Nutrients
I have been growing outdoors up until now, and I am new to indoor growing. I'd like some opinions on my grow set-up:

-I have room for and plan to grow a MAXIMUM of six plants.
-I will use a 250W Metal Halide Lamp for Veg and a 250W HPS lanp for floweing.
-My glow medium will consist of either 1/3 peat moss, 1/3 perlite, 1/3 vermiculite OR 1/2 peat moss, 1/4 perlite, 1/4 vermiculite.

I have two questions:

1. Is my grow medium appropriate, and is there any particular advatage to either of the ratios I provided?

2. How long after germination should I start to provide nutirents? My medium will b e completely nutrient free, so I don't want to go too long without feeding it. On the other hand, I don't want to kill it before it's stong enough to recieve nutes.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

hey land...

1. I would just use soil ( a great soil ) and perlite
2. you should wait at least 14-21 days if you are using a soil... if you are not using a soil, you may need to start (very very light - DILUTED) in the first 5- 7 days (if your medium is completely void of nutrients..

cheers
