Maybe but I'd get something better like some pre-mixed organic's those tea bags are cool but kind of weak(good for seedlings I bet)but for veg I use pro-blend grow...it has everything I need in it for my veg growth...Plus those bags aren't going to last that long...you can buy a good amount for like 20 bucks at a hydro store or garden center.That should last alot longer.But go ahead and use it until the root system developes then get something better.
