The stuff I have is 18-18-21. My plants are 10 days old and under a 18/6 light cycle. I was wondering if this would be ok to use on my babies due to the fact that I'm kind of strapped for cash at the moment.

Kinda srong. How many sets of leaves do they have and, is the soil you used ferted already. Soil with nutes will probably not need much through out veg and if they doading a top layer of soil will usually provide enough additional nutes.

I hesitate to give advice with these ferts due to the fact that they are rather strong. I personally consider the first two weeks of 12/12 kinda of like an rapid veg phase as the plants really just stretch and prep for flowering. If your going to use it start rally weak and work your way up. Is the medium a time release pre ferted soil? If so be very carefull.

Thanks for all the good suggestions. I also started in Miracle grow potting soil that was pre fert for 3 months. I am now in week 3 of flowering after 2 months of veg. I will use some tomato Miracle grow fert, weak, with some molasses. Hope this makes the buds get real big. Started with 6 plants and 5 are female, and this was bag seed, but indica type plants. JUst purchased the Radio shack hand held micro scope to look at the trics and their color. Getting to the end in another 6 to 7 weeks. Peace and respect Mon, Love Bob Marley

Nice one J!!! Fook those Cats! :mooning


Instead of using chemical nutes it's easy to find organic fertilizer's at the local stores too.... it's all about the NPK after all... the trace elements too (Don't want grief for leaving that important part out!)
Farm supply stores are a great source for organic ferts, as well as the home building supply stores. Heck I've even seen organic ferts at 'Dollar' type stores.
Just read the labels if you're buying a pre-mixed tone type compound... or many of the stores sell ferts like blood, bone, green sand, kelp, potash, urea, etc... and even mycorrhizae beasties and even compost type beasties individually packaged.

Yes even fish and poop types can be found at local supply stores.

You do not have to mail order your supplies that claim to be for Cannabis specifically.... a plant is a plant... yes each type of plant requires different NPK and traces to grow to it's potential.
It's harder to "Burn" cannabis using organic ferts then using chemical nutes. Organic smoke tastes better too.

IMHO
