Be careful with the nutes, that mix is pre-loaded for 6 months. The NPK is 14-16-18!

Directly I'm afraidAre you growing directly in that mix, or are you adding that to a potting soil?
On their site it says you can grow directly in it, it's a peat based media.I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like a soil amendment rather than a potting soil.

They're so cute at that ageMeet The Chonks
Strain = pineapple chunk (femanized autos)
3 gal pots
7 days old from germination
They're so cute at that age
So it's now Friday, how are the plants?
With autos you want to go very slowly on nutes. Maybe next time cut that soil, using only 20% with a plain soil mix or better yet, just plain soil that you can amend during the grow.
When a nute package says NPK that's for an adult plant, not a seedling or worse, an auto seedling. Always go very slow with nutes especially on seedlings.Thanks for help @Phyto seems to be a complete medium to grow in 14-16-18 npk, ratio is not so much higher than the individual npk ratios on the BioBizz bottles when using them all together I would imagine they add up to about the same or a bit less. when you factor in that with for example tomatoes soil must end up higher than 14-16-18
I feed them bottled spring water always so should keep the pH down and no nutes apart from bloom stims during flowering .
Fingers crossed what's worse can happenwill keep you updated
I would check the PH and PPM's/EC of the water, spring water, depending on the source, can be acidic or alkaline and can have high amounts of dissolved solids.I feed them bottled spring water always so should keep the pH down
It really varies which brand I can get hold of but I did just check the manufacturer website of highland spring 6.5 - 7I would check the PH and PPM's/EC of the water, spring water, depending on the source, can be acidic or alkaline and can have high amounts of dissolved solids.
I don't think I'd try and adjust it if it's 6.5-7.0, you're in a peat based media, which is going to be very acidic to begin with. The seedlings look good, I'd let em ride and then see what happens. If you use tap water, don't sweat dechlorinating, it only lasts a day or so, and really does little or no harm to the microbes (they recover within 24-48 hours).It really varies which brand I can get hold of but I did just check the manufacturer website of highland spring 6.5 - 7
Little on the higher side so I'll see what I can get to try lower it a bit pH lowering solution.
Was the best option really I did think about altering tap water but our tap water pH is 8.5 - 9 and I would imagine it would need a declorinator or very least sit for 24 hours.
I do keep aquarium fish and snakes so humidity and water pH I do have a bit more experience with.
They seem to be quite happy ill keep a close eye on em and keep you guys updated.
You guys are ace Ty for advice
