Default 1st grow - Hempy Box - Need help with Nutes & Lights
Hi All,

I was hoping someone would be kind enough to offer me a little advice.

I started a hempy grow in 32oz plastic cups filled with 100% perlite. I tried doing my research re: nutes but everyone has a diffrent opinion.

I am aware of the lucas formula but those nutes are not available here.

1. When to start feeding? Some say a week, others seem to do it everyday at 1/4 strength.

2. What other brands of neuts have y'all had success with?

3. When does everyone start putting their seedlings under light? I'm using 2 x 23 W CFL

Thanks in advance!

1. Start using nutes once your plant/s is/are about 2-3 weeks old, and yes start the nutes at 1/4 strength especially if you already have nutes in your soil

2. I havent used fox farm yet, but from what i can see, they are definitely the best nutes you can get.

3. Once your seedling cracks starts to sprout of of the soil you can put light on it. Just dont put the lights too close to the little sprout while it is real young cause you dont want to give it too much light, but yeah once it sprouts above the soil go for it.

hope some of this helped, good luck
