Fertilizers and when to apply!!!

[Mrpiston38]

Hello everyone! Thia ia my 5th grow and I am a little mind boggeld on fertilizers and how i should apply them. as a soil base i am using Fox Farm Ocean forest Organic potting soil. As for nutriants i have Fox Farm Grow big 6-4-4 for my base, Supper Nova 1-1-1, and Dark Energy 2-0-0. My Question is this how should I incorperate the the dark energy and supper nova with the Fox Farms and in which order. my plants are 1 week old and i just applied the first FF product as a follar spray only. If anyone has some Ideas or has used the products in the past let me kno ur fails or succses. Anything right now will help.

I wouldnt use any grow big for at least a couple weeks for seedplants then start half strength,I started using PBP grow because grow big can be tricky to use.I don't know about the other products but go easy on the grow big.Look to the leaftips any burning on them back off the ferts.

Plants a week old don't need to fertilized. Relax. Take a deep breath. Give your future bowl pack a chance. It's a harsh world your little seedling just came into. Let it get it's feet. Check the place out some before you go.."drink this, grow fast so I kill you and smoke your resiny remains".
As for your nutes, I can't help you as I'm a organic dirt and tea guy. And, Mrpiston38 welcome to IC Mag. There is vast amount of info here. Read, read some more. Use the search. Don't just post a basic question, taking a short cut. But take it upon one's self to teach/educate yourself.
Your Ocean Forest soil should have enough in it to get your little seedling down the road.

Yes i believe that seedlings carry enough nutrients and hormones in them to last them their first few weeks of growth with just water alone. When you see that your plants are hungry then you should feed them a half or quarter dose of something. If they still look hungry feed em a lil more. GL with your grow and welcome!!!

They don't see anything but water from me for at least 3 weeks

Because ocean forest soil contains nutrients, wait about 2 1/2 weeks before applying any ferts. If your soil had no nutes, you begin feeding very weakly when the true leaves have formed not first cotyledons that appear.

Well thank you all for your input but you didn't answer my Q. When using the big bug, when should I apply the Super Nova and or the Dark energy?
