I'm looking to introduce nutrients to my small grow that I'm doing on the side for fun. The plants are about 1 month old and have only received nutrients from Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil. I hoping to get recommendations from y'all who know much more than I do to give my girls a boost. Any links and suggestions would be appreciated. Ive only grown a few plants to flower and my knowledge of nutrition, tests and diagnoses are slim. Any info and tips are greatly appreciated. I do this for fun and these are tests you could say, but I want to learn to do things right. I use a Spider Farmer SF-600 LED panel (not enough I don't think) Let me know your thoughts, thanks.

Stick with FoxFarm and I think you'll do really well. They've been my go-to brand since my outdoor days, and they do well for me indoors so far.

How big is the grow space? From what i could find the SF-600 is only 85 watts so that really is not enough for multiple plants. Really you want between 30 and 50 watts per sq foot for led's depending on the type. Slow growth could also be many other factors to be fair, but that light might be part of the problem. Also if you water to runoff you could be washing nutes out and you may need to introduce some nutes via watering during flower. There are many lines that are good.

It's just a closet grow. It's about 2 1/2 ft by 4 ft long. Right now I only have 3 plants and they pretty much have full coverage of the LEDs. The plants are still young (about 5 weeks) and planted in quite large pots for their age so there isn't much runoff since right now they don't receive much water. I'm looking into getting another panel to house 4-6. I want a quality light but can't afford the best of the best.
