@Jerma_grow, Hey there, I have been giving them Green House Seed company's veg fertilizer, so they have gotten nutrients from very early on. I've just chosen to switch from the Green House Seeds "Fast Flowering" nutrients to BioBizz. The main reason was that I didn't see any remarkable difference with that fertilizer. It has very high numbers in P-N-K, but it is very concentrated, so once it is diluted with water it is nowhere near those numbers. The amount of fertilizer always depend on the strain. Some can take more than others, but you also have to understand that you don't really feed the plant, but the soil. It all depends on how much uptake there is or else you'll just keep the soil with a big amount of nutrients. And in some cases that can kill some plants. But most can take a lot as long as the fertilizer/water concentration isn't too high. That is also why most feeding schedules aren't meant for pushing plants to the max. It is the general safe level, so in most cases you can easily double the amount of fertilizer compared to the suggested amount. But one important point. DO NOT over feed in the first couple of weeks. I would suggest using the recommended amount of fertilizer for seedlings. Start with the first feed, root juice type of fertilizers for the early feedings. Once the plants really starts growing, you can start with the suggested amount of fertilizer and then push it up and up until you see some upward turning of the leaves. That shows you are being too heavy on the fertilizer, but a good flushing should fix that right up. I use the BioBizz because I have used it before with great success. Although I don't use the entire line up of products, I'm using the essentials. I also use the Acti-Vera and Bio Heaven, but haven't added it to the nutrient history of the diary yet. Just a bit lazy hehe. On of my friends are also using it right now, so I was a bit inspired by his plant development. I'm especially a huge fan of Bio Heaven, but it is one of the more expensive products. But I do feel it does give some extra to the finished product, that you don't get anywhere else. I use Bio Bizz all Mix for the soil, so that also makes it easy to decide to go for their line of nutrients. I have a friend of a friend that produces a fertilizer called Big Plant Science and I might try that one out next time. I hope that helped and answered your questions. If not, just let me know and I'll try and give a better explanation. If there is anything else you need advice on, just ask.
