So i've been doing alot of research and just need a few questions answered:

How often should i flood the table which is only holding 2 ladies at the moment that are 1 week old?

How close should i position my 400w MH light? The ladies are about 3 inches tall.

I've been feeding them 4 times a day is that to much?

I've been using DYNA -GRO Liquid grow plant food with an NPK of 7-9-5 is that ok? I also have some other nutes that came with my starter kit-
Botanicare CNS17 GROW, NPK=3-2-4
Botanicare CNS17 BLOOM, NPK=2-2-5
Botanicare Liquid Karma, NPK=.1-.1-.5

Will all of these work for all stages or should i get something else for the different stages?

ANY recommondations???

I've been feeding them 4 times a day is that to much? yes that's way to much. don't feed them anything for the 1st 3 weeks or so. when you start feeding start at 1/4 strength and work up. i would use a feeding schedule like feed-feed-water-feed feed-water. let the soil dry out a bit be4 watering or feeding. ph every time u mix up your nutes.

I've been using DYNA -GRO Liquid grow plant food with an NPK of 7-9-5 is that ok? I also have some other nuts that came with my starter kit-
Botanicare CNS17 GROW, NPK=3-2-4 use this with your7-9-5 for veg
Botanicare CNS17 BLOOM, NPK=2-2-5 use these two for flower. i would also get a higher PK for the later pert of flower.
Botanicare Liquid Karma, NPK=.1-.1-.5

Will all of these work for all stages or should i get something else for the different stages?

ANY recommendations???

kiss-assTHANK YOU FOR THE QUICK REPLY!!! Im sorry i forgot to mention im using rockwool and hydrotons for the medium. So i should deffenitly hold back on the nutes till the ladies are about 3 weeks old?! And when i do add nutes should i use the nutes that came with the kit or should i use the Luca formula with GH nutes?

Thanks again for the help its greatly appreciated!:bigjoint:

You should post some pics for better evaluation. It sounds like you're over feeding for sure... If you're using a 400 watt mh and the girls are like 3" tall... I would hang the light like 2-3 ft away. If the leaves start to curl, raise the light. If the plants start to stretch, lower it. Put the backside of your hand up to the tops of the plants, if it feels good for your hand, it should be ok for the plants. Also, I wouldn't add nutes till after the first two weeks or so.

So just to make sure i understand correctly its best to wait until the plants are 2 weeks old after germination to start adding nutes? Also, how should i portion out the DYNA -GRO Liquid grow plant food with an NPK of 7-9-5 and the Botanicare CNS17 GROW, NPK=3-2-4...would that give me a total NPK or 10-11-9??? thats the only part of the whole system that i dont get! I pretty much have a good grasp on everything else but just a little puzzled when it comes to combining nutes! Should i just go with GH and use the lucas formula or make due with what i have? Someone please give me some info!! Thanks again for the help and patience
