Well, about last saturday i germinated some seeds and 3 sprouted so i think i have some pretty good soil not to sure. I put them outdoors and they are growing ok so far, but the thing is i started real basic. I only used water so far no nutes. I'm a real noob and i dont know the basic things i need. I don't have a big budget so i was wondering was are the main essential things i need so that i can keep my plant healthy throughout the whole grow. Please go easy on me i'm new. :smile:

The plants have been growing for about 5 days in soil so far.



~Thanks in advance, all tips, and advise are welcome.

So far so good! They are too little for nutes. Wait till 4-5 weeks then use 1/4 strenght nutes then water only every other watering. The recomended NPK for pot in veg is 10-10-10 and 10-30-20 for flower. If you stay close to those numbers you can prevent some deficencys. Peters fertilizer is 20-20-20 which is the same as 10-10-10 but a little stronger by 10%. Very good for veg. For flower I mix Fox Farms OpenSesame 5-45-19 with Supernatural Bloom 14-9-19 which is 19-54-38 and thats almost 10-30-20 if you look at the pecentages. Its just stronger. If you like organic nutes BioBizBloom is 1-3-2 which is also the same as 10-30-20 but 10 times weaker. I add Technaflora Sugar Daddy and B1 to my nutes through the whole cycle and I add MagiCal during flower. Sweet and CalMag work too. I never use full strenght nutes even in late flower because thats how you create deficencys and roast your plants. If you remember thar over feeding causes deficencys and over watering destroys the root system, you wont have many issues. Good luck with your grow show. Peace out!

I forgot to add! If you use tap water make sure to add chlorine remover from the pet store. It removes a lot more then just chlorine and It make the water a lot better for growing and you dont have to wait 24 hrs for the chlorine to disapate.
