It smart to always make sure your water is pH. You want to make sure that the pH is in between 6 and 6.5 since you're growing in soil. It's a good rule of thumb when growing autos to wait till the beginning of week 3 to start feeding you have to remember that there's going to be enough nutrients in the soil for the plant until that point hopefully this was helpful and good luck with the rest of your grow.

Soil ph range : between 6 and 7 Soil ph sweet spot : 6.5 When give nutrients ? : check the soil package NPK ratio , if it's a light mix ( example NPK 5-5-5 ) or a all mix ( exemple NPK 14-16-18 ) . With the light mix you can lightly feed during the 1st week ( roots booster , light N amount ) ; with the all mix you can fairly wait 3 weeks before feeding

You need to know the ppm and ph of soil first. Then you go from there. Always go by the run off. I test by testing my water ph and ppm. Then I add it to my soil in a solo cup and let it soak for an hr. Then i pour it off and test it. That will tell you what the ph and the ppm is of your soil. You feed your plants as your run off tells you. You want your run off going down not up. If run off is going up you are over feeding plant's. Seeds don't need much ppm and in soil if ph is 6-7 you will be fine. I like my soil to start anywhere from 50-300 ppm.šŸ‘šŸ‘ From the White House

Hello, I start ph'ing my water as soon as they're in large containers..for some reason if i start in solo cups they haven't had any problems with just water. With nutrients...i think it varies but sometime around 2 weeks of using watever the soil contains is when I have to start adding things in. Since your plants small and you may not water as heavy, she may get to week 3 without needing extra. Congrats on the sponsored grow, good luck and happy growing .āœŒļø

With pure water u can't do a lot wrong. Just don't overwateršŸ˜ very common mistake I made too I personally would only give a litlle bit of Root strengthener now. For nutrients : u have more than enough in the soil for the first 3 to 4 weeks and then u can add vegative stage nutrients but at a very low dosage and see how the plant reacts. Never start full dosage because it's harder to correct it. Starting at the 3d node is also a good advice from user Germano
