First true leaves and adding nuts

[bobthethcguy]

I am using this site and the how to grow by ACI as my reference. My seeds germinated few days ago and have the first set of true leaves. I've heard once those are developed you can start adding in a (25% strong) nitrogen nutrient to help them go, I warn you, I'm autistic and very type A, software developer so thats my mind set.....when are the true leaves considered 'developed' ? They are about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch long (true leaves), and plant is about 4 inches tall.

Should I start adding weak N nut now? Or should the true leaves get bigger first?

Soil has been drying up pretty regularly every two days

I'd go easy on nutes. OF is pretty hot out of the bag. Depending on pot size, you could get three weeks or more out of the soil itself. If you haven't already added microbes, I'd water in mycorhizzae every two weeks or so to help make the soil amendments plant-available.

Thank you, I did add Mycorhizzae to the mix prior to putting seed in, treated it like the potting mix I make for veggies.
