For my nutrients I plan to use flora micro and flora bloom. I planted my seeds in mother earth terracraft potting soil. Will those nutrients be good for the medium? When should I introduce those nutes? Should I try just water for a couple feeds? My first grow.

The first 7 to 10 days it is just water. Usually in soil you won't need nutrients for 2 to 4 weeks. I believe you asked a question in regards to your substrate a few days ago. It has a extremely low npk already in it. So you will likely need to introduce feed about the 10 to 14 day mark. The only issue I see you having is no perlite in substrate. Which will likely cause watering issues in the future. No good drainage plus lack of air to roots. Especially when you need to get run off so your old fertilizer salts don't build up before long.

Yup, just water to begin. Very little to avoid drowning the plant. Your plants should be okay for some times, but after around one week or so, start the fertilizer program (it usually start lighter the first weeks anyway). Keep you eyes on your plants in case of under/over-fertilization and don't forget to let the soil dry a bit between watering. ^^
