if I just use water and seaweed extract will my plant be able to make it through flowering without adding an immense amount of nutrients. I meen the plants leaves are very green and healthy looking no deficiencies or nutrient burn yet and it seems to grow way faster than just regular water obviously... However my main question is how many nutes do you really need? keep it simple,or go all out?

It depends on what kind of soil you are using. I can tell you are using soil obviously by a couple key things you said but I can't know what type of soil. Did you do a blend? A Super Soil blend? When I am running Super Soil I can make it all the way through with most strains but I have a strain I need to add a little nutrients about just past midway through. All of them I end up giving Cal Mag Plus to and since I vegged under MH lights this run I had to foliar feed Cal Mag Plus for a N supplement.

If you want more specific help be more specific ;)

It is probably the biggest a Nono but it's miracle grow with a chunk of the Pete moss it was germinated in. surrounding the seed doesn't seem to need water but every 3-4 days - to a week depending on how much I watered before I'm using maxicrop seaweed extract mixed with water I know miracle grow is bad do to all the extended release stuff but I believe all those effects have diminshed as the fertilizer chunks are yellowing that's when I started adding the maxicrop seaweed extract then it started growing a lot faster.

ALOT of miracle grow soil is made with those fertilizer balls that feed the plants over 3 months(or whatever).

Cannabis growers tend to stay away from that brand of soil because the nutrients can "burn" young plants.

Fox Farm Ocean Forrest. About 22$ a bag. If you don't have a grow store near you, you can order from places like TrueValue online and have it shipped to the store for free.

You could go from start to finish with only water and still end up with good final product, although some may disagree. I suppose its like comparing a Lamborghini and a ? ....lol I dunno but you get the picture.

Seems to work well so far for me along with the Fox Farm Ocean Forrest. Probably going to change it up a bit for flowering.
