do what pacman said, but when you first start only do half the nutes so you dont stun them or get nut burn.

I like to wait 2-3 weeks or until I have like 4-5 sets of leaves. It depends on what they're growing in. Do like dylster says and go 1/3 - 1/2 strength on your nutes when you first do it.

thanx so i should wait till theres about 4 or 5 sets of leaves, and everybody keeps saying the smaller wattage cfl's 23 or so are better than the 45 or 65 for vegging does that sound about right to everyone?

wait till your about 2 weeks into veg i would say because ur new. because i fucked up my plants at first because of nut burn but there back to health but yea 4 to 5 sets of leafs is good. then add 1/3 of your nutes plus water and check your ppms and ph always and you will be cool.
