new seedling water
Ive got a seedling going on thats been poked through the 1.5" rockwool cube 4-5 days now. I was going to just leave it in the cube by itself for until the first fan leaves were out good and then put it into a 4" block. However, the taproot is sticking out of the bottom of the 1.5" cube and I decided i didnt want to put the 4" bock into my W/F because it seems like water would stick in the 4" cube a lot longer than the hydroton that is supposed to be the main media. Now if have got the cube in a cup with hydroton around the 1.5" cube and holes in the bottom for drainage. The question is, how often do i need to give this thing water? And when can I give it its first nutes. I have read about people give their seedlings superthrive, or LiquidKarma. I have liquidkarma on the way but by the time some superthrive got here I probably wouldnt need it anymore. Also, I was planning on watering the planter cup by sticking it into a bowl of water and then pulling it out kind of like a manual ebb n flow. Opinions? Im afraid of giving it too much attention early on. Save me from myself!
