When do you first start giving nutrients

Ned_Growsstarted grow question 6y ago

Hello fellow growers, I'm curious to know at what age do you first start giving nutrients to your plants and to what effect, I've had a couple of issues with nutrient burn in my young plants when growing in coco, any input or advice would be appreciated thanks.

The plant has nutrients built in when it germinates. These nutrients make it through about 3 weeks. Your first sign to start giving nutrients is when the cotyledons (original rounded leaves) start dying. This method has been 100% effective for me.

Also, start off around 300 ppm and increase about 100 ppm every week.

BioBizz Schema Fragen I have my first photo here and I'm fertilizing with BioBizz. Should I proceed the same way as with autos? Bloom is supposed to be given in week 3, but I'm sending them into flowering myself. And the plan only goes until the tenth week, so just keep going?

Correct feeding schedule / having trouble determining when I should feed my plants in Flower.My Purple Haze plant doesn't seem to like high nutrient content. At this point, feeding it once per week will only burn the plant. Is it okay that haven't really added much nutrients at all over the past few weeks? I will continue to not add nutrients until I see deficiency?

Nutriens I guess my first question as a first-timer would be when is the ideal time to start adding nutrients. I have already purchased several products in advance such as bat guano, humic/fulvic acid, cane molasses, and marine phytoplankton.

Feeding Given I mix nutrients with water; how much do you give them compared to your pot I.e 3L = 300ml or 10%. I’ve also been informed you need to feed just water every 2 or 3 feeds. I want a steady schedule that can be tweaked accordingly
