I was wondering if the soil I got is going to be good enough for the whole grow or do I have to add any nutes to it. I got some clones already in rockwool with the roots coming out. They are about 3-5 inchs high right now and Im about to get them in some pots. Ill be using a potting soil with the follwing ingrediants:
sedge peat, sphagnum, peat, pearlite, bone meal, feather meal, bat guano, seabird guano, rock phosphate w/humates, lime, and fossilized kelp. The bag says its good for up to 60 days. Is there anything else that I will need to add during the veg or flowering stages. I also got an extra bag or pearlite that Ill be adding. Also when should I cut clones from these clones. I got them from a buddy of mine from his mother plant. Any info would be appreciated.

You'll probably need to add some type of ferts/food to your soil once you get into the flowering stage(or maybe a week before). As for when to cut more clones, I'm not too sure about that. I would probably cut them atleast a week and a half before kicking over to flower (so your plants will recover from the shock before they have to concentrate on flower production).

Agreed. Controlling PH is absolutely necessary. Just pouring tap water on your plant will NOT cut it.

I got this stuff called pure blend premium organic plant food 1.5-4-5 fruit and flower formula. Do I start this product when I start to flower or a week before and how much do I use and how often.

I would start that stuff around the exact date you switch. How much.. depends on what your plants look like... DO they look hungry..?

I would always dilute nutrients and error on the side of "not enough"...

It is very risky feeding plants without PHing water....
