Never heard of those nutes, what does the manufacturer recommend? Happy frog soil is not heavily fertilized, it runs out of nutes in a couple weeks, then you start feeding at seedling strength.

Says 4ml per liter during all weeks for all grow phase. Use 2ml per liter for small 3 to 4 sets of leaves. Can you explain that in dummy terms please

I grow organic, but the basic gist is 2ml is your seedling strength and bump to 4ml once they’ve filled out a bit more. Welcome to RIU!

Iguana juice is good stuff, used it with great results. You’re way premature on nutes, those are frail seedlings. At that point I only give them, trace amounts of silica, and a few drops of calmag as a preventative for possible deficiencies. The nutrients in happy frog is fine for a month. When they are three times that size Id start using only 1ml per gallon of iguana grow. Then the next watering is just plain water. Observe. If they look good gradually increase to 2ml iguana grow per gallon. I dont exceed. 3ml.

Unless you're growing in a shotglass, you shouldn't have to water every other day, and you definitely don't want to fertilize every two days in soil. My SWAG is it's the begining of nute burn.

So only feed water. When would i feed nutes? Im still learning
Go a couple watering cycles with plain water then feed mild nutes (50%) every other time you water, see how the plants react then increase to 100%. Let the pots get light before watering again. Water around the outside edge of the pot, not the middle, you want the roots to search for water and fill the container.

I feel like its a stupid question but is it bad to water before shutting their lights? I have them on 18/6
I prefer to do it ealier in the day, so the humidity has a lttle time to drop before lights out, but I think it's more of an issue once they flower and you want to keep the humidity lower.
