16 day seedlings... nutrients??

THEY ARE AUTOS BTW.....two seedlings 3/12-3/13 are sprout days... I ordered nutes today should get them in a few days. is it the right time to start feeding them. i am including pictures. they are BIGGER than this now. I've only had them in fox farm soil Ocean forest btw and a single 150hps light... should i start nutes next week??

dont start nutes for like 3 weeks atleast with fox farms ocean forest. its already packed with nutes almost too much for seedlings some can get burnt from it. just sit back relax and water for a few weeks.

Patience is key. She's happy with the nutes from the soil she's in now. I'm in light warrior and my plants are going strong in it's 3rd week. And light warrior is much less hot (hot meaning lots of nutes) than ocean forest. So just enjoy watering them and watching them grow until you start seeing them lighten up.

Once you start seeing them go lighter in color, REPORT back to this thread to see if you should give its first feeding. Pm me when you have an update for us.

Ya i think fox will give you like 40 days of nuties tis so small ti hasent even started to use em really keep it simple i grew these in shitty soil with no nutes 0 just what was in the tap waterView attachment 2590484

my plant made it ~5 weeks before asking for food, and that was from an empty soil of peat moss, perlite, limestone and i added 1 teaspoon of compost: paradise seeds diesel

I like a less-is-more approach to growing. If you have the FF OF already in your mix, personally I wouldn`t be adding any nutrients until I`d flower. The FFOF should have everything you need unless you intend on a 2 month veg type thing.

General rule of thumb is no feeding until the 2nd or 3rd set of true nodes (cotyledon don`t count!). But you`re looking good there as is mate. Ultimately you have options depending on the avenue you take

I use ocean forest for seedling an veg an never had problem with burn even without nutrient at the moment I start my seedlings early 1 1/2 teaspoons of big bloom then when there 2 weeks I go full strength I do that to get them more use to nutrient then use to what only in soil some times I only do a half of teaspoon up in till 3 weeks it's all about preference an the plant most plants will take well an some won't but all preference.

Can`t wait. I`ve heard mixed reviews on the General Organics stuff from my mates. Never sure if they`re using them right though . Let me know how the ladies likes it, supposed to be good stuff. My soil recipe allows for nutrient feedings as I like to feed and the Kush`s I usually grow LOVE to eat later on, I need to flexibility. Top tokin`

They look great.

yeah man looking good. just water when needed and sit back and watch em grow pretty easy stuff for a while

Agreed, looking very healthy. Keep up the good work with those. As Mrblu said, it`s a waiting game straight water now

You see those first two oval leaves that appeared when your seedlings popped out of the soil? Generally, they'll get brown and curl up before you have to feed. Mine curled a week ago and I haven't fed them yet. No problem. Your plants are looking good to me, keep it up!
