Seedling Transition to Veg.

[peter berger]

Hello all just wondering how I can tell when my seedling has gone into its vegetative stage?
Any information would be greatly appreciated

Not an expert but from what I have read the seedling will first start to sprout leaves that only have one finger instead of the 5 or 7 fingers on normal adult leaves. Next it grows another node with maybe 3 finger leaves and so on until finally the new nodes will have 5 or 7 finger leaves, maybe even 9 sometimes 11. When the new nodes aren't adding any more fingers then it is usually considered to have made the transition fron seedling to vegitative stage.

If you are using Fox farm soil, she already has enough nutrients for about month, however it depends, if you consider that feeding is necessary start with 1/4 of nuts solution.

I think what youre asking is when it isn't considered a "seedling?"

Watch for it to "harden off." The stem itself will appear sturdy, and the tell-tale sign is little white bumps on the stem near the base.

People say start feeding after about 30 days.

I start feeding 1/4 strength nutes after about 21/24 days....
