I'm planning a grow with a similar medium, 2 parts peat moss 1 part perlite and 1 part vermiculite, I'll be using GH 3 part flora starting off at the end of week one or so with very diluted nutes (1/4 strength or less) every second watering then slowly moving up
Your seedling should have enough nutrients to keep itself going for the first week but since peat moss/perlite don't have any natural nutrients you will have to start feeding sooner than you would with organic potting soil

try the fox farm trio. you dont need the supplements. will last a long time also. always feed lightly. start out at half str.

I do like my medium 50/50 of shagnum peat moss and perlite, it make an excellent drain. I do pre mix with Garden Espma's LIME to buffer pH...now i also add diatomaceous earth...it make a good medium for grow your med cannabis :D

you can buy any hydroponic fertilizer for your medium. its really simple.

Good luck, buddy

happy growing and peace
