i was told, and have since seen it work myself, to get ammonium nitrate and put a thin circle of it around the edge of the hole i dug. this allows it to be washed down to ur plants roots when it rains. DO NOT put it next to the base of ur plant. and being that urs are so young it will take very little to start w/. i'm talking like less than would fit in the palm of ur hand around each plant. i fert, let it rain twice, then go back and fert again. so far i've seen a GIANT diff in plant growth since starting this! gonna try to get some mollasses to put around em during flowering. but until then, the ammo. nit. is doing the trick! and about wasting time starting? naw man, i'm gonna put em in the dirt up till the end of next mo., it depends on where ur at, but ever heard of the sea of green method? 50 ft. tall plants would produce more than one would think, i assume. ; )
