some have it in the bag and some dont, almost a guessing game sometimes. Thats why this site is very helpful.

You can keep track of the runoff values and when it gets lower than around 1000ppm, start adding nutes. I add silica before that, but let them go otherwise. People have good results tweaking a variety of approaches so take in all the info you can and settle in to your (and their) groove.

I recomend getting a cheep TDS meter (12/15.00) check your run off and when it gets down to 800/1000 start feeding.

Welcome to the neighborhood. You are covered by the great growers here. Happy growing :blush::v:

You’ll know to feed when the bottom leaves start turning light green and yellow
