Could this grow have benefitted from feeding nutrients earlier? I was worried about overfeeding and nutrient toxicity early. What is the optimal time to begin feeding nutrients?

Your plants don’t show any deficiencies so why add nutrients? Plants look good mate, nice grow.

@Oregonist Hi mate i introduce my plants to a very weak nutrient solution aprox 1 week from germination especially autos as their grow clock if you like starts as soon as they germinate and I like to give them the best start in life. So to answer your question 2nd week of life with a ppm of no more than 200 until 3rd week .

I dont run nutrients until the plant seems strong enough to take it usually about a month if you are using a good substrate (i preferably use fox farm ocean it comes with 6-6.7 ph and that gets me through the first month) after the first month i start at 25% manufacture instructions alternate feedings from nutrients to liquid karma (basically at compost tea mix) by month 2 im at full throttle nutrients

Week 1 from seeds on a light but constant feeding schedule. Every brand of nutrient offer different feeding schedule but you will benefit from faster root development early on. General rule of thumb keep your PPMs low under 200 for week 2-3 than gradually increase. As for organic dry amendments you pre-mix in your medium and its a slow release process so the plant feeds itself as it grows.

Usually after about 4 weeks depending on the pot size is when you can start feeding. Also when using nutes start at least 1/2 the recommended doesage.

hey there, you're totally fine and were right to worry about that, you're doing better than most as it is, so i would say, nah you had everything you need. One thing though, never ever grow without cal mag, you'll always need it with these kinds of branded genetics, start adding that every 10 days or so and you wont have to worry. Hope this helps ! 🚀
