This is the chart I'm going by with a slight tweek I didn't feed them yet & the seedlings are at about 12- 13 days in & they are ready for there first feeding. I'm def going light on the first feeding but I was wondering mostly how much water should I use per seedling? 3 are in 4 gallon containers & two are in 2 gallon containers at the moment. I'm using FFOF for the first time I used my own compost for a long time but decided to grab a few bags at the local hydro store.http://www.growweedeasy.com/nutrients

I am a hydro guy but ffof has notes in it already. If you start with nutes you may have all kinds of problem with nute burn or lockout. Especially at this stage. Your plants just don't need that much to live right now.



Also, I would start in much smaller containers. That way the medium doesn't stay too saturated and you are allowing it to dry just a bit. You could run into issues if your roots are just constantly saturated which they would be in that size pot until you are well into flowering.

You will be fine i would only water about a 1/2 gallon and when they get a little stronger let it dry out well between waterings so the roots search for water. This is very beneficial when starting in large pots so you dont get lazy and week roots. When they get bigger water untill you see runoff out the bottom. hope this helps.
