alright..

Growing in Foxfarm's light warrior under 400w HPS with RO water.

going to use PBP Grow/Bloom, and CalMag Plus

The seedlings broke the surface yesterday so I threw them under the HPS (all I have) and gave them plain RO water.(

When do I need to start with the nutes? Some people say hold off for 2 weeks while others say PPM up to 300.. should i go ahead and start feeding them with something or will plain water handle things.

What's the deal with Calmag plus, how should I use it? full strength straight through??

I've been looking around for a while but haven't been able to figure this stuff out.

any advice on PPM through the life cycle, Cal mag or PBP, RO water, or any general nutrient advice is appreciated.

Thanks dudes

The Light Warrior soil contains nutes so supplemental feeding won't be necessary for about 2-3 weeks or so. Plain water will be fine for now.

When you start to use the PBP start off with about 1/4 of the recommended strength and gradually increase the dosage. Start off with 1/4 strength to prevent accidental nute burn. Do the same with the CalMag. Don't go full force right off the start. I've only used CalMag a few times for defecencies and not as a supplemental nutrient. I usually add dolomite lime to my soil before planting for Cal and Mg.
