is it time for nutrients?

Hello all, My mothers are planted in happy frog soil in three gallon pots. They have been in the three gallon pots for about three weeks now. The roots are starting to show in the bottom drain hole. They are also showing signs of a little stress like tips looking burnt and a couple leaves curling down. I want to clone these plants in the very near future. Can I start giving them low doses of some nutrients like FoxFarm big bloom liquid plant food to keep them healthy or is there a better method? I really don't want to transplant them if I don't have to right now. Thanks all.

Won’t hurt

1/2 strength...….nute for mine

If that

Burnt tips and leaves curling down doesn't sound like your plants are hurting for nutrients. Happy Frog can supply the nutrients they need for longer than three weeks.

The rule of thumb for growing a plant is 1 gallon of pot for every month of growth, so a 3 gallon pot is fine for a 90 day plant. It is the minimum, but it works.

I am wondering whats going on then? My plants are about five weeks old and growing like crazy. I just figured they used up all the nutrients in the soil
