Clones going 12/12 now

Hi folks, Seedling stage. I am going to use Coco coir that has been pre buffered by the makers. Do I need to use any Cal Mag?. Also, my understanding is that I start giving weak nutrients after about 4-5 days after birth????. Any thoughts and/or advice would be appreciated. I've got 2 'trial' seedlings on the go at the moment but there is something wrong!. Looks like a classic case of overwatering however I thought Coco coir would handle pretty much any amount by way of run off?. They are a week old!. To summarize; Do I need Cal Mag and when do I start with nutrients with seedlings in Coco?. What you see are seeds I'm preparing for an outdoor grow.

So I only start giving calmag for the coco coir about 3/4 weeks after I start feeding nutrients, After that I typically I use 1/4 (hard water) or 1/3 (soft water) the recommended calmag dosage on the bottle once a week, just to keep the coco coir buffered. Then obviously when you want to actually feed your plant calmag, you just up the calmag dosage.

Many thanks for the information, just what I needed . 'Life is an experiment' . Will update as and when.

Yes you can start feeding them, I wouldnt add any calmag just yet, but some veg nutes. and only when the cup is super dry. do a 1/4 dose, really they don't need more. and once youve made 1/4 strength nutes water 5% of the cups volume with it.

Clones

Was a bit busy.. playing with clones these days. Trying another stupid idea to increase yield ^^ But right now the aim is quality. Have 3 strains dried to 64% and will dress them over the weekend. Liked the result very much, just could be more. I let one main stem supply only the FIM version of the main, rest is radically chopped away. Looks a bit scary when i flip em , is not much left of those clones. Pictures of the Ginger Tea before dressing
