When should I feed for first time?
ChuckyKstarted grow question 5 years ago
First grow. I am growing in promix ultimate organic mixed with vermiculite and worm castings. When should I add nutes, even at the most minute dose, for the first time? I’ll be using dr.earth starter fert 2-4-2 alternating with a 2-2-2 liquid feed for start of true veg.

3 weeks after because the promix contain enough nutrients for at least 3 weeks.
Even after 3 week I would give nutrients only when needed by watching the plant leaves.
Moreover it seems that the less powerful is the light and the longest the nutrients are lasting in the soil , it is due to a slower stimulation of the plant by the low light so she cannot achieves the same photosynthesis than under more watts so she’s using less nuts

You shouldn’t need to feed for a few weeks to a month. Watch the color of the leaves. If they get too light or you notice slower growth, it’s time to start feeding

Which fertilizer should be used in the early flowering stage?There is an autoflower plant that has just started to bloom. I water twice a week, one with fertilizer and one without fertilizer. Do you think it should be switched to bloom fertilizer at this stage, or should grow fertilizer be given for another week since it is still growing?

Fert Switch Veg/Flower TimingWhen and how do you switch from Canna Vega to Canna Flores? Feel free to share any tips. What are your "signals"?
Do you suggest a hard switch like in the Canna schedule, or do you prefer transitioning by mixing the fertilizers?
If you need more info, please check the diary.

How often use fertilizerHi!
I have a question about fertilization. I use mineral fertilizer from Advanced Hydroponics of Holland (Grow, Bloom, Micro) every time I water. Which can be 2x on hot days. Every 2 to 3 weeks they get worm juice. However, I have now read that you should only fertilize every 2Feeding. Schedule

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?
