lookin good, as far as the nutes you're looking for, get some Superthrive (make sure you shake the bottle before mixing). I figure you just sprayed everything, hopefully not the full plant everytime and don't apply nutes to the leaves.. Hannan needs to stretch and straighten that stem out a little bit more..is there a fan in there?

Superthrive is not nutes, brah! ST is vitamins, mostly, no nutes, says so right on the bottle! Nutes, or nutrients is just the fancy word we use fer fertilizer, cause of all of the other stuff we have in it as well!

Plants are lookin great man! I wouldn't worry about small blemishes and the yellowing of that one - different plants and strains act different ways but as they get older and stronger they'll lose their ugly duckling leaves and grow some damn pretty ones. I really don't know shit about growing but nute wise I had great expirience with the cheapo stuff from home depot. I went with vigoro (the cheapest I could find with the ratio of nutes i wanted) all purpose plant food (24-8-16) and watered it down to 1/10 strength and it seemed to work fine. Ide save buying the expensive stuff for flowering. The smallest bottle of bloom nutes at my local hydro store was $25! The Vigoro and a big bag of bone meal (1-11-0) was only like $7 combined.

About how many days into veg do most of you guys add nutes? Or is it just a thing where you dilute it a lot at first, then as the plant gets older you just dilute it less and less?? Cuz ive read so many different ratios of diluting from 1/2 to 1/20th lol.

yeah - everyone says something else. I'm personally afriad to death of nute overdose so I dilute my nutes alot but water with them almost every time. Supposedly you want to add as much nutes as possible without them burning. You could always start slow and step it up each time until you start seeing negative effects, then just back off it alil. Nute burn is easy to identify so as long as you pay attention to your plants you should be safe.
It's all about expirimenting around - no two set-ups are the same and no two plants. Different strains handle things very differently as well - a couple of my plants feed like pregnant bitches yet another is extremely touchy and doesn't like much more than sugar water.
Just make sure you don't forget your molasses!

I noticed your soil looks like there is no perlite mixed in. Perlite helps with drainage. If you don't already have a moisture meter I would buy one, five or six bucks at Lowe's. My plants looked alot like yours, that looks like miracle grow organic soil, same pots, etc... Before I got the moisture meter I was overwatering, which will cause droopy leaves. So, if you plan to transplant into bigger pots, mix in 1/3 of soil with perlite, it is very cheap, you can buy it anywhere they sell soil. Once I mixed in the perlite and put in bigger pots they plants starting growing much faster. The spots on your leaves looked like overwatering that is why I mentioned this. Hope this helps, peace.

I use tap water but our tap water is really good here in Northern California. I should be using alil pH down but oh well. My shitty as pH meter says the soil is around 6.9 which I guess isn't ideal but definately not harmful.Haha thats awesome, we have a couple 250gal totes full of food grade molasses at work
