I had a bag seed few months back and threw it in some random pot and it 'magically started to grow!" I grew on no nutes and 2 27W 5500K cfls in Miracle - Grow &Potting Mix with Fertilizer and it did great, green leaves, tall and pretty durin veg.

I threw 3 spikes of this fert stuff in when i went 12/12 and the veg took off after 2-3 days. I then put 3 more after another 2 weeks and it continued to thrive until i found out it was a male :( .

5 seeds of white widow fem are about to arrive and i'm trying to prepare my strategy.

Miracle - Grow &Potting Mix with Fertilizer
Miracle - Grow Plant Food Spike

I suggest that you disprove all of the Miracle Grow hating public. Run a test and do two plants with your current idea and 3 plants the "standard" way with high dollar nutrients and lets see what wins out.

My money is on the Miracle Grow products.

You could always just try one with fox farm and one with MG...would be a good experiment to see


Edit: DAMN why do i type so slow

Your young seedlings may not like the level of nutrients that come in the Miracle-Grow soil while they are still young. If you want to use MG fertilizer you would be better off getting the soluble powder over the slow release spikes. It will be a lot easier for you to fix any nutrient problems that may come up.
