Can the plant produce buds or even survive without nutrients?

look up subcools super soil, should help you out as you mix all the food in with the dirt n stuff at the start of the grow
 
It need nutrients from somewhere. It would be kind of like asking if someone can get fat without eating any food. 9 out of 10 times the instructions on the nutrients will provide a good balance not too hot and not cool weak.
 
I understand what you mean, same boat as me!!
what i recommend is getting some very good soil, after around 5 weeks start off with a small amount of nutes (few droplets) and feed them, increase this over time, i use nutes once a week on my plants and have done since 5 weeks of flowering, a little goes a long way.
just remember a few droplets increase every week or 2, you will be fine.
 
somebody said i should start feeding them after they get 5 sets of leafs. sound about right huh? i have allready nute-burned one of my babys allready :(
 
If you know you'r going to overdo it why don't you just stick to the charts?
Save yourself the guesswork.
 
Hi,
well i started using ferts around 5 weeks after, i recommend you use a good quality compost, it may cost a little more than average stuff but is much better in the long run.
Around 5 nodes (5 sets of leaves) does sound about right.
do not use any more nute's until they are older, 5 Nodes will be suffice to start using a very week formula, just use half of what it states on the label, then increase this bit by bit (use nutes every 5 days) until you get to the recommended blend and stick to that then.
Stop using fert's 2 weeks before your harvest otherwise the weed will taste/smell funny.

hope this helps.
