Hi all, I have a lady about to enter veg…can anyone recommend some tried and tested nutrients best for seedlings? I have bat guano here but that’s it atm…

TIA

Depending on your budget, what medium you using and how much complexity can you handle to measure variables

I would point you to the fox farms trio. For both soil and coco. They're not cheap but very forgiving, just follow instructions.

A bit cheaper but only for coco/soiless the general hydroponics trio. Dumb proof, 3 different colors. Just mix and feed

If you're up to measuring pH and EC the I would recommend calcium nitrate and a full feed formula like jacks hydroponics. Cheapest but more complicated
 
How old is it? Seedling in my view is like 1-3wks old. Which as the above person said it doesn't need it. When you ask these questions give us specifics like " what's it growing in, age, photo or auto. em k
 
It’s nearly 2wks, has 4 leaves…just asking for when I feed it and it needs it…getting close to the time of feeding so looking for some tried and tested so I can order them in ready

TIA

Can see a big difference in growth everyday so thought I’d ask a little early 🙂
 
I gently water in my germinated seed head with tap root with a foliar spray mix...10% of normal for veg.
I then proceed to drown the fuck out of them....but I'm improving
 
Don't drown the fuck outta them like Bluey does LOL water slowly an gently around in a circle around the outer leaf. Are you in soil or just coco? All this is importaint cause as you read an learn nutes are different in soil an coco. I use a combo soil/coco mix with extra worm casings and perilite and i recycle soil on my indoor plants and just refresh it. Seedlings don't need nutes but since you asked i dilute my bat/fish quanos and only give 1/4 nute mixed with water. They are very sensitive at this age. So tell us what the final pot soil will be helps.
 
Ok so in her solo cup she’s in canna professional soil…first and last time I use this, way too hot. Damaged one of the leaves inside the seed, tbh I didn’t think it would get much further but she’s flying. Never again tho, planning on changing the mix for the final pot now, hoping it survives the change but lesson learned.
I actually drown the fuck out of them if anything, I’m being abit more gentle now 🤣 This thing really is growing quick

Drowning the bejeezus out of them if your medium is too hot is akin to flushing them, especially if you are just giving water in soil. That one looks very happy
