Got a link to that feed schedule??? Sometimes they run the feed schedules a little hot.... Got a ppm meter??? If not, the 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, full strength schedule should do just fine....

Also which bottles you got??? And does your soil already have nutes???

Kinda like this.... *******However I would deviate & document******


Put my own batch together.... (See my 2nd grow intro.... Sez it all)
No "ppm" meter....
FF Nutes...."Big Bloom", Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, Open Sesame, Beastie Bloom, ChaChing.

Just as I thought....that feed chart is way too hot.... 700-840ppms for seedlings/cuttings??? No way....

A ppm meter will make all the difference for you and knowing how strong your nutrient solution is.... When you have some time, read the thread linked in my sig...."PPMS Made Easy to Understand"....

Or you can just do the 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, full strength method.... What you do is look at the recommended amounts and divide by 1/4 for the first three weeks....divide by 1/2 for the next three....divide by 3/4 for the next three....and full strength for one....and flush the final two.... <----but that really isn't the best way to go about it....

But I'd go get a ppm meter so you know what the strength is.... The ppm meter and the fox farm feed schedule can help you dial in your feeding....

Maybe someone using those same products will chime in....

Thanx Bro! I haven't fed them a thing... everything was incorporated in my mix (2 parts Canadian peat, 1 part cow manure, 1 part Perlite, approx. 1 tbs Plant-Tone, Some added vermiculite for added aeration)

Not quite sure but I think 1 plant is into the 4th or maybe even the 5th set of true leaves? Also, what's up with the discoloration (minor at best) on this one?

Guys:

Know I may have inquired but need to know if nutrients are a must this early in the game or just patience & wait until the 3rd week? Maybe 3-4 sets of leaves in this mixed batch.... Cheers & belated holidays to all

Supplementing your soil with nutes isn't necessary this early....especially if your soil already has nutrient content mixed in....

The discoloration is pretty normal....looks like the plant is feeding itself.... You want to start light (1/4 - 1/2 recommended strength) nute feeds once your new growth start looking light lime greenish....as if it might start yellowing....
