Hello everybody! Ive only jst recently joined this community so hello all nice 2meet u!:thumbsup::jointsmile:

Ive just started growin some lovely white widow (first grow as u can probably tell) and I just have a few questions if thats ok.

When should I start using nutrients? (I have bn soil supermix btw)
Ive been told to leave off the nutrients and just water for first couple of weeks, would this b correct?

Also how often would I need 2 feed the plant? Im guessin its not everyday?

Thanks Peace & Love Timmy

Read the first link in my siggy, then read it again.

I'm not sure what supermix is but if it has fertilizer in it you are in trouble! No ferts at all until the plant has 5 nodes, and then, LIGHTLY to start. Also, judge your watering by how light the pots feel, rather than a volume per time period.

Welcome.

Stinky im in a similar situation...

I have an AK47 x Lowryder growing right now in the 3rd week of veg...She was in Miracle Organic potting mix (which killed my other 4) and I just transplanted her in some Promix BX as it just arrived in the mail...I can see that the tips are beginning to burn (prolly nute burn from the MG)..but how many days should I wait until I start using the Botanicare Pure Blend Pro soil Form?

It's in a 3'x1'x3' cabinet with a 400w MH/HPS bulb at around 83degrees....20/4 light cause its autoflowering

You can start it now, run it weak.
Did you flush and let dry out before the transplant? If not, you may see the plant get a bit worse before it gets better.
Start a thread in problems if there is an issue, with pics.
