Root Growth

hey all, again, a n00b Question...

first off, i do have some experience growing plants, ust not mary. and i know that with some it's good to help influence good and deep root growth... now, this is something that i can understand, more roots means healthier plant in some cases.

is that the case with our good Friend MaryJane?

also, i know that Nitrogen is good for the green growth like in the Vegetative stage, and it's the first number... but what helps with good deep healthy root growth?

any and all advise would be great.. the little'uns that i have haven't sprouted, but i want to make sure that they are as healthy and happy as possable.

so, to restate... root growth, should i work at getting them to grow lots of healthy roots? what component of fertilizer helps with that?

Peace.

just a lil piece of advice... if you've read up on things.. you'd know not to fert until about 2-3 weeks from sprout... or even a month.... and don't water too much...
