I don't add nutes until it has several nodes. Like 2 or 3 weeks in. I am 100% perlite now. I used to add verm, but found that is unnecessary. Just to be safe and for peace of mind, you can start your first feeding at half the nutes. But, I don't even bother doing that anymore. Note. I also grow autos. Just because good auto seeds make it even easier. You don't have to worry about light schedule or light leaks. I do about 14 hour on 10 off. I've done photos too, 12/12 after about 2 weeks.

I'm telling you. I may not get the absolute best yields, but it is just so easy and care free. A monkey could be trained to do this. And I do get very good yields, the smoke is awesome, the plants look great all the way through and I honestly have no issues. Except they get GIANT! lol. Anyway, start off with easy and if you want to play with it to maximize your yields, just go slow about doing different things. In case you run into problems. I used to do that and now I just use the basic formula all the way through. Just don't overthink it and you will be successful barring any unforeseen events.

Gotcha brother thanks for the replies I just got one ak - 48 going its a fem not an auto tho so hope it goes well got first set of true leaves going
Too early for nutes. At that young seedling stage I just add a couple of mgs of plain tap everyday right at the roots. That's just a fail safe really. Maybe not even necessary but, gives me peace of mind. And of course keep all of your perlite moist. It looks like you are using a rockwool cube. I do that too! But, lately I've just been using plain ole peet pellets. Cheaper and easier to find. Interesting that you added hydroton. Makes sense, never tried that. Anyway, you can use that perlite over and over again. Just get as much of the dead roots out as you can after a grow. And rinse it real good. Möbius is indeed a knowledgeable grower. Also look up ISK! He's top notch Hempy/Lucad and even amazes me! He's got a couple of journals you could follow too. Good luck bro. Don't stress. It will grow itself.

The World of Hempy (WOH) is a hempy thread with a lot of good information, but unfortunately Moebius is no longer active on this site due to a personal situation....but the thread still has lots of good information, and there are those that will provide feedback

All my seeds are fem not autos don't think that's the same thing?
You can grow a photo like an auto. Just go 12/12 light cycle after a couple of weeks. I have never tried pop bottles. I used to always use 5 gallon buckets. Now 3 gallon. Next time when I buy, I'm going with 2 gallons. And yes, I've done 2 photos in the same 3 gallon bucket. Going 12/12 will make for a smaller plant, smaller yield. I don't care. I'm just about personal. I want top shelf, I want it healthy. And I want to get to harvest as fast as possible.
