Im running a dwc, my babies were just transplanted today in rapid rooter plugs into five gallon dwc buckets and net tops, hydroton media, they are only six days old from breaking top of the plugs. 600w mh above about 3 feet. Now how long before i begin to add nutes. Can i grow them with no nutes right now. what are the pros and cons. I need some good experience and opinions cause this is where i screwed myself last time. Basicly how long should i run without nutes and is it screwing my yeild.

How are they looking? I would wait at least another week probably before adding nutes. You want a couple of nodes to have have full leaves.

What nutes are you planning on using?

right now i have general hydroponics nutes, but was thinking of switching to Botanicare nutes. i dunno maybe a spur of the moment, in a dwc bubbler which would you prefer?

You can run HG or the Botanicare both are good food. I start my babies in 300ppm and when they have roots up it to 500 to 650 for the next 4 weeks.
