Hey everybody!! [wavey]

I have babies under flourescents that have their second sets of leaves now, and Im guessing it's time to give them their first feeding of diluted fish emulsion.

They are currently in small seed starting cells and Im planning on moving them into jiffy pots soon. [clappy]

Anyways, what do you think? Should I give them the feeding tonight, and transplant tomorrow? Or wait to feed them till after I transplant? [dunno]

Thanks!! [flower]

As with anything i transplant, i use seaweed or kelp extract. Not a fert as such but a tonic. Stand the seedlings in the liquid for 5 min or so while preparing, then transplant, then water with the liquid. Give another dose a week later. They'll never know they were moved.

Keep the nitrogen low for seeds or seedling. Feed them lighlty after transplanting
