Im already using worm castings? My grow is in soil with a worm casting mix, my plants are 10 days old and seem to be growing fine, nice green leaves and thick stems and there almost 3inches tall.

So, am i fine using the castings as nutes or do i need to give them something else? i have some plant food you mix with water,(not MG) that i got for blooming but it also says you can use it for just regular feedings.

Maybe a Organic Chem mix? lol

I would use anything organic at this point. (10 days) but at a 1/4 strength according to the package instructions. Just watch them for any yellowing, which I dont believe will happen. Do this for a couple weeks and bump it up to 1/2 strength. Do this for a week and a half, then bump up to 3/4 str. for a week, then full str. Watch them babies grow!!

I wouldn't add anything until they are at least 3-4 weeks old. I would say don't worry about it unless you begin seeing early signs of an issue.

You can do the whole veg cycle on worm shit alone and the plants will love it. If everything is green and growing nicely then you should not fuck with a good thing. Countless plants have been murdered by well intentioned farmers who dote over their plants too much and add Fertilizer only to end up burnt.
