Hello V!
I have some questions I hope you can answer.
Well, I hope so too, otherwise this would be a waste of space.
Why do you have so many nutrients? I have only Ionic Bloom and Ionic grow, is it to little? What do you think I should get additionally? I am growing for the first time and don't know much.
I am using the same nutrients you are. And that is what I used when I started. All of the rest of the regiment are additives recommended By the manufacturer. My Hydro Shop has some production of the nutes and I have just about enough experience with growing that I think I can make use of them for increased production. In addition, I recommend the Dark Energy and the Super Thrive. A little goes a long way and the humic acids are good for protecting your roots, long story. FOr not knowing much it seems like your doing pretty good.
My seedling are now three weeks old and sitting in rockwool in canna coco.
When you put this in your journal, explain how you got to this point, ie I started with rockwool and........
I have a 400 MH lamp 2 feet above
You need to start closing this distance for 3 week old seedlings. Unless you have serious heat issues, you need to get that distance to about 1' by week 4. MOve it down 3" today, no adverse effect, move it down another 3" the next day etc. If its air cooled you should be able to get it within 8" of the top of the plants, then move it up as the plants grow up.

and use 1/4 Ionic growth which I have been using since start.
Did you cheat and do some reading first? Good for you. I usually start with quarter strength at about the beginning of week 3 and have it at full strength by the end week four for seeds. Again step it up 1/4 for your next watering, no adverse effects, step it up again three days later until you are at full strength, I run 1300-1400ppm with the Ionic for Soil and Coco and I get the one with the humic acids. I find no corelation (sp) between the recommended dose and what you need to use. All of this is of course dependant on your water, it needs to be ph adjusted for coco, I run mine at <5.8. Add your nutes to the proper ppm and then ph the water, You didn't mention a system, You are handwatering?
They are doing good, so I don't know if I should lower the lamp or give them more nutes or just do nothing. I give them 100 ml water every day with nutes. Is it to much nutes? Any help would be appreciated.
How are your plants by the way?
