Nutes after transplant and spring water

Nomorebush
Nomorebushstarted grow question 2 years ago
Hello, I have recently transplanted my green friends, is it time for me to start using nutes or should I wait for a bit after the transplant (possibly stunted)? Also I'm using spring water which is 0.0 EC, should I always use calmag to raise it up to 0.6 EC before adding nutes?

Odd, spring water is not normally 0.00EC may want to check the EC monitor to see if its working right. Spring water normally has mineral content of magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium, and other trace minerals, maybe it is distilled or RO water?? Any who despite that first hiccup. it will all depend what your growing them in, soil, peat, coir and if its been fortified. Beware some things called potting soil mixes are not truly soil and are comprised of peat mostly. Mixes tend to be fortified for the first 2 weeks and won't need anything. I would check your mediums mix and confirm if it is fortified with any slow release or regular fertilizers before feeding more. Then if it is wait a bit, and if it is not, feed them a low amount. Just remember autos do not like strong feeds and its best to use 1/2 to 1/4 the recommended dose or make up the feed as per the label and then dilute it down with more water till you hit your desired EC if using liquid nutrients and adjust the PH. Dry amendments are a bit easier and can use 1/2 to 3/4 strength with PH'd water. Good Luck!

When you have to start with giving nutrients all depends on the soil that you used for the larger pot. If you used a light mix soil than you can start adding some nutrients. But when you used a fertilized soil you can wait another 1-2 weeks because the roots will first have acces to the fertilizer in this soil. Use a grow nutrition during vegging and a bloom nutrition from the moment that the first white pistils form a small bud on the plant.
