New to indoor growing - what nutrients additives do I need ?

I have just bought a autopot kit (gravity feed) and 600w hps light/ ballast and fans etc. this will be my first indoor grow & wondering what nutrients/additives I would need ? I am also using 100% perlite, is this a good idea ?

What have you been feeding the plants in your other post? You say you just started indoors. Is this plant outdoors? It looks just fine as do the others.

up until a week ago all of them were in the ground with poor soil. I have been feeding them powerfeed for veges & seasol. I'm just curious as to what nutrients to get for indoor, outdoor is fail proof but this seems completely different... Maybe just paranoia and over thinking it ?

Also, the larger plants (45cm) were in the soil for about 2 months and seem to be stunted from winter

so, were in the ground and now they are in perlite in a autofeed system. Yut, they need something. Many choices. I'd try something simple like one of the starter kits from GH, Technaflora or others. For the flowering ones I'd try GH Maxi-Bloom. As far as all the extra nutrients I"d skip all that this time (unless it comes in the kit).

Cheers, yeah the aquapot came with a+b nutrients so I might stick with them for another week or so. So should I run only maxi bloom in the tank after I've changed nutrients ?
Thanks

I've seen great results from people running just Maxi-Bloom all the way through. They add a little high nitrogen nute like worm castings or composted manure in veg. I gave what I had left to my bro and he did well with it too. I don't use it when I grow 100% organic.
