Ferts for seedlings
I have three little ones that are about a week old, and they have their first real leaves- is it too soon to give them fertilizer? What is the best kind and how often do you dose them? I don't want to murder the babies, but I don;tw ant to starve them either. Where is the best place to order ferts?
If there are any police listening, I grow tomatoes, okay:p

Thanks Bomb- I will hold off on feeding them. They do have a fan on them, and they are doing a little dance :dance:

If they are dancing either the fan is on them too strong or your meds are too strong, lol! :D

I WISH my meds were too strong :)
So you mean if they are shivering a little, the fan is too strong? Should I move it away until the seedlings stand still? I thought a little dancing would make them grow stronger- it sure helped me in the disco days heehee

I wouln't have the fan blowing right on them at first because they will dry out really fast and you'll have a hard time giving them the right amt of water... adjust the fan so there's just the littlest bit of movement. They can take more wind when they develop good roots.
