to my baby. I've been growing them since 5th October. I repotted and added new soil on sunday so I know there are some nutes in that. But was just wondering.

After they are a month old you can start using mixed at quarter strength, which looks like you are right in the ballpark. Ifyou keep transplanting you should be able to grow without any nutes the whole grow, someday I will try it just to see the difference and let everyone know the answer.

I'm in the same boat, but using fox farm ocean soil, should I use big bloom from the very beginning like the fox farm chart says?

The question was answered several times in this thread, what else are you looking for ? A more complicated answer ?

nah everyone is talking about doing it 3,4,5 week of vegging, but fox farm nutes say seedling...just curious if that would burn them, if anyone had tried it

In reality everyone is correct, you just have to decide who you want to listen to. Everyone does it teir own way. If the directions say to start at seedling try it on one plant but not the other and see what works for you. If you use fresh soil you can do the whole grow without any nutes because the seed itself and the soil will contain enough to sustain it.

That's about the best advice I can give. Standard practice is not to use nutes until the plant is around a month old.
