How many days after my seed sprouts should i start giving it nutes? it says 5 days on the fox farm website but I was curious if anyone had any experience.. I would be v grateful.

It has very little food compared to ocean forest and if left in a solo cup it would need to be fed after 5-7 days. When I used it to germinate, I preferred to pot up with something like ocean forest after 7 days from sprout to a 1-gal pot instead of feeding.

yeah one of my seedlings is in 50/50 FFOF and Light Warrior mixed and 1 is just light warrior and extra great white myco mixed in.. I planted on the 7th it sprouted on the 8th should i feed it on the 13/14th? also I dont currently have a 1gal to put it in so should i just give it light feeding? like just some micro and grow? what do you suggest? I was gonna just do 1/3 dose of everything..

I don't use liquid fertilizers. I use top dressings of dry fertilizers that take time to feed the soil. I prefer something like 1 - 1 1/2 tsp of fox farm marine cuisine 10-7-7 for a solo cup. Liquid nutes work faster. If it was me and the seedling was healthy and dark green I'd probably wait for the 1st sign of it needing food. Some may disagree with that, but I prefer to read the plant and learn what it needs and likes that way. Less is more with liquid nutes so using less than recommended is usually the way to go.
Experience is the best teacher. Keep in mind a plant that is deficient is easier to fix than a plant that has been over fertilized.
