jan 2012 285.jpgjan 2012 286.jpgjan 2012 287.jpgjan 2012 288.jpgHow are my ten day old seedlings looking?? as was hoping to use bio bizz as a foliar spray soon and some canna tera vega but do not want to use this too early. They are Paradise seeds Wappa alledgedley easy to grow and do not suffer mould etc . I am using plagron light mix soil which is a lightly fertilised organic soil and will be mixing foliar spray and canna vega mixed with tap water....Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am a 1st timer.

Thanks

Remember they are only young and not very strong , do not over do it , at this stage it's not going to effect your yield , you can put stuff in , but you can't take it out , what soil are you in btw ?
Personally , i would wait until more leafs have developed, ...

No, because the soil already had nutes in it..enough to sustain the plant for the first couple of weeks. Once you start seeing the Cotyledons(round leave that first appear when it sprout out of the ground) turn yellow and start dying, that when you usually start feeding at 1/4 to 1/3 strength. Also, your plants are looking good, but a little stretched, lower you lights a little and have a fan blowing softly on the plants so their stems get stronger.

This is good advice in my oppinion.If you decide to foliar feed raise your light some while the leaves are wet as to not burn your leaves.And use the foliar spray at like 25 % and spray only 1 and see how it reacts.Like I advised earlier.Do not get impatient and over feed or water these young plants they are delicate still.I wish you success with your grow but try to limit your number of threads about the same thing.Use the search function and do some research it will help you understand the physiology of the plant.

Other than the stretch they look great. Nice and green. They look much better than my 9 day old ones which are 15 day now and have not gotten any bigger and show signs of deficiency. Good job. 100_0056.jpg

they are nice and green but you shouldnt need to use sticks to hold them up. you either need more air flow on the plants to strengthen the stem up or you need to move the light closer. i got mine basically on top of the plant and with a fan blowing directly on them. keeps them short and stocky.

Thanks guys....sticks are out fan is on and stems are stronger looking.......the Cotyledons are dead now by the looks of them so going to give 1 of them a very weak drop of canna vega and see how it reacts....Ill kp yous posted. Cheers
