Advice on seedling going into Biobizz All-Mix

I have some seedlings that have germinated, however I only have Biobizz All-Mix which has an EC of 2.4. Is this too 'hot' for seedlings. I have read countless posts on this and some say no way its too much nutes and some say they have used it for years without problems.

I'd like a personal answer instead of going on others answers please. If you say no its not good, is there any way I can make it good? Would flushing work, or would that just water log the soil and make it no good for a seedling? The seedlings will need to go into soil today and I have no way of getting to a shop for any other soil till tuesday.

The only shop I could get to is B&Q anyway and there soil is the best way to get bugs and problems from the start which I would like to avoid... Also the closest grow shop to me is pathetic, I sent someone in to get some jiffy pellets and they claim they haven't had any in stock at all but I seen them on the shelf myself. I won't buy from that shop myself due to trust issues with them, so I have to rely on others going in for me.

technically, and i say this as it is just that. technically.

you could get a toilet paper roll. cut it in half. fill it to with a paper towel that doesnt break or tear to easily and use that as a temporary medium. also, you would have to dome it over until it has passed the seedling stage.

once again, this is technically what you could do. the roots will tear through paper towel no problem, its like a ghetto NFT. you wont have to feed it for the first couple days as water will be fine. you can then transplant it to your soil when ready.

Thanks for a good suggestion for me to do. My toilet paper is scented, would that be any cause for concern?

And will the toilet paper that remains after I put it into soil cause and damp/mould issues by any chance?

dont use toilet paper, use paper towel, toilet paper is made to disolve/break in water.

they shouldnt cause mold as the soil will wick away most of the moisture, just like using a grodan starting cube in soil.

if you are really concerned, play it safe and remove to plant from the toilet paper roll before re potting.

and i dont know about the scent, that means it has some form of chemicals in it to give it that scent.
