Younger plants

[greensky]

When would you recommend i start feeding my younger plants.They just started there 5 finger leaves and i have Fish emulsion,Super thrive and bone meal to cover my basics. What ration should i use if i should start feeding them ?

[trillions of atoms]

feed when coddletons (first baby leaves) start to yellow and fall of... start small dose and bump it up every time...

i start at about 3 weeks with 1/4 dose of quality grow nute,, good luck and welcome to 420G:icon_smil

I would do what toa said... normally I wait till the cotyledons fall off too. Then you can hit them with the fish emulsion @ 1/4 strength.

Increase the strength the next feeding to 1/2 strength and work it up from there.

I would follow Newf's advice if this is yourt first grow. Remember less is more until you figure it out. To much nutes is a common mistake that most of us have made in the past. Good luck

take it easy buddy,, that fish shit is usually strong, as is the superthrive....theyre only small plants,, they dont need much....

also depends on the medium your using,, if it has nutes in it,, you dont need to add your own as quick....my 2 cents

Bulletin: Use superthrive during transplant, or stressed plant only. It is not meant to be used as a plant food per say. By stress I mean anything besides over watering, over feeding. (pests damage, dropped, broken,light burn etc)

[newf]

also ST should not be used on flowering plants...
