I plan on running organic with HP promix, Gaia green 444, 284, worm castings and some recharge. Seedling just popped 4 days ago in a solo with worm castings and HP.. Any recommendations on amending with these products before transplanting into a 5 gallon fabric pot.

Get a tote or even use the pot. add a bottom layer of soil and then add a layer of worm castings and then another layer of soil. now mix in the appropriate amount of 444 for veg and mix together the top layer with the layer of worm castings. put another layer of worm castings and then make a hole for the solo cup and fill the rest with soil around it and mix that up a little bit around the solo cup and pack very lightly. just enough to keep the shape of the solo cup and then pull the solo cup out and then transplant and fill with a little bit more of soil and worm castings if you please. i go heavy on worm castings but im pretty sure you cant over do it within reason but i do think you can get away with doing less. and then at the end of it all, water in with recharge. preferably dechlorinated water of some sort.

Gaia Green is Nice, Bit heavy in N I find an best to mix it in ratios with power bloom. like 50/50. Takes time to breakdown and become available but immediately available N is high vs long term N. Can grow some nice plants with it. I always run into issues in bloom with P and Ca issues, then soil gets to hot. Works best outdoors and wear a mask when handling the powders. Start with 1half the rate they susgest on label, then work your way up. Easy to add in more hard to take it out. Need to feed about a week before it shows. so set up a schedule for feeding.

Hey man, I don’t run that setup myself but I’ve helped a few folks dial it in. If you’re transplanting into a 5 gal with HP Promix, worm castings, Recharge and Gaia 444/284, I’d suggest: 2 tbsp 4-4-4 per gallon of soil 1 tbsp 2-8-4 per gallon Mix in a couple handfuls of worm castings Recharge once a week or so Let it sit a few days before transplanting if you can — helps the microbes get going. Then top dress after 3–4 weeks, leaning more on the 284 once flowering kicks off. It's not really my style but it can work great if you keep the pH in check and don’t overdo it. Hope that helps

Check out 420_scene on YouTube he makes good information videos and he uses those same types of fertilizer I personally like liquid salt nutrients it’s a lot easier to get nutrients on point and adjust them when needed
