Whats up, growers!
I just started a first grow about 10 days ago
Seeds sprouted fine
Right now they are in 1" rock cubes, submerged in pots with hydroton
About 2-3 inches tall, got 1 pair of real leafs and developing 2nd and 3rd pairs.
Most guides say "dont feed nutrients for first 3 weeks"
Question: where do plants get nutrients to grow? rockwool and hydroton dont have any nutritional content
Right now i'm letting rockwool pieces to dry out, and then soak them with plain 3-day old tap water. Stems look purple, so i read that means nutritional deficiency.
Thanks
