Just keep your ph proper going in and proper coming out. Dirt can be a little hot (high ec levels) so it can take some time for a baby to grow into accepting those levels.

You don’t! Just make sure your water is around 6.4. The only things I feed seedlings is beneficial microbes and mycorrhiza

Starting Nutrient Feeding Based on weekly comment: The cotyledons have dried up, is it good for me to start feeding nutes at 10% of the reccomended amounts this week? The soil is organic, and does contain nutes. I have doubts that the seedling has used much of it since the root system is still tiny.

Does Liquide phenol red work to check the water PH?Liquide Phenol red is the cheapest alternative ive got. It should range between 6 and 8. But it say s for uses at pools and hot tubs, should be more or less accurate and get the job done right? As i can easily see diferences between 6.0 and 7.0? Thank you! :D

Should i water abundantly like flushing, with vinegar laced water? With what ph? 6.0? 5.0? Im measuring with liquid phenol red so range might be off a bit.
