Hey everyone!
I just have a few questions about my first grow. They are 3 week old seedlings now and man they are getting big, albeit i am concerned a bit leggy, as in about 5 or 6cm tall. The light is positioned 50cm above...any closer and they get too hot, so I don't feel it's the distance. They all have 2 pairs of leaves and many are coming in with a3rd now. I have put up a fan and they seem to be loving it. So, my qiestions are:
Is 3 weeks old too young to feed them? My grow shop gave me a bottle of Oldtimer organic feed and recommended diluting it right down so i did about 1/8th of the dosage to a lot of filtered water, and have given them a tiny amount each. So far so good, but i have read about them getting root burn at this young age so am cautious?
They were repotted very early, 1 week old, because they were absolutely hammering their fibre pots with roots coming out of the bottom. how will i kno when to repot again; is it the same story, if the roots come out of the bottom?
Can the oscillating fan stay on 24/7? As in even when the lights are on their off cycle.
My major concern is the length of their stems right now at this young age but i'm hoping the oscillating fan will help strengthen them and they'll catch up with themselves!
Thank you all most kindly for any advice...
