Do you have a time machine? ;) Because it would save you a ton of headaches to go back and aquire the basic knowledge of how to grow Cannabis. :hippy:
Unless you are growing a particularly "needy" plant... don't freak out about not having food (nutrients). Much of the energy needed to initiate the grow cycle is stored in the seedlings Cotelydons.
Ahhh... my stupid fucking computer is freezing up so I can't throw any links your way. Got to re-start.
But for gods sake....... GO READ SOMETHING!!! People have spent far too many personal hours to create tutorials for ALL aspects of Cannabis growing on this site. Do them a favor and read 'em all first.

I've read a lot of grow logs and the nutes are pretty much the same and not variety specific. Read them. Then use your phone, call the place you shop and find out if they have them! Your plants will survive for another day, while you get the info you need!
Look under the Tutorials: there are many and they seem to use a few of the same ones. Cannibis, like rose's, use the same thing for every strain or variety. Is what I can figure! You need to decide for yourself!
Lots of TUTORIALS & threads on this!
Endless hours in those threads to give you that info! :thumbsup:

Hey man, Miracle grow is never the answer you don't want that shit in your body and as far as a good growth hormone use Sea kelp it is natures cure. I believe Texasgrass posted a really nice article on the benefits of sea kelp it is really good stuff for foliar spraying and it has growth hormones in it. As far as other nutes look in to Botanicare their products have never done me wrong.

I would not get a growth hormone from lowes or wal-mart. I would order some from a hydro shop. If you need something to supplement you until you can get something good I would go organic with the lowest NPK you can find.

Any of the hydroponic shops sell fertilizers. There are quite a few which for the most part are separated into grow and bloom. I usually go organic and use pure blend pro grow and pure blend pro bloom, but there are bunches of others out there that are just as good.

If you have to use walmart, you can start with a tomato food, but it really isn't ideal for your plants, and don't forget to use LESS than the label says until you know your plants can take it. Better, go to a garden store and look for a fertilizer with a higher FIRST number on it- that is a 'grow' fert. Don't ever use orchid or azalea food, or miracid!
Definitely take some time to check out what hydro shops stock, because those are MADE for cannabis.

[Don't ever use orchid or azalea food, or miracid!]
Why not use orchid or azalea food?? because they are for flowers and not for human consumption...?? guessing do not use rose nutrients either??

Way to bring up a dead conversation:thumbsup:
Could have just started a new thread stating how well orchid or azalea or rose nutes work since you feel so strong about them....

hello. URGENCY noted. just want to mention, sea kelp has a lot of mercury. all fertilizers, including miracle- have bad chemicals. your plant needs to bond broken oxygen in the root to soil nutrients which transport to the leaf. olive oil is groovy.
