Hey guys i need a lil help…im not a newbie although it is my first grow in a tent + using Leds + bottled semi/salt nutrients & i guess this relates MAINLY to Green Planets GP3 nutrient line but im sure relates to ALLLL nutrient companies products & that is ….

what sort of percentage of the 7 different nutrients for Week 1 would you recommend i feed my 5 fem photos for their FIRST feed of any sort?

im thinking 25% & no stronger than 50% MAX for a first feed for week old seedlings ‍♂‍♂

Any recommendations please?

Its rather impossible to answer without any data? Its better to steer away from the nutrient lines asking for 7 different bottles when the same minerals only need 2 parts from other nutrient lines.

Like other stated we don't even know what you're growing and in what setting?

If you state what the different bottles contain and at what concentration we're better able to help. It also depends on your water source what minerals you need to add. Some may get away with using less since the water already contains enough Calcium and Magnesium etc.

Without any data it's a shoot in the dark practice and your guess is as good as mine?

Cheers!

First feed might be a bit tricky especially when introducing new equipment and nutrients! It is probably best to begin at quarter to half of the recommended dose with GP3 or any bottled nutrient until you see how your plants respond. Too much too soon can cause nutrient burn, especially LEDs can kind of increase their uptake. Gradually increase the dosage based on how your plants acclimate to them. Good luck with the tent grow bro !
