Do you add fertilizer once the seedlings start?

No. A seed contains all the necessary nutrients required until the 2nd true leaf sprouts....about 4 weeks dependent on the plant

There are options to buy just the box or buy it with the fertilizer etc. I just bought the soil & fertilizer at my local nursery.

The instructions are located on the side of the box. It will clarify which fertilizers to use during the seed/veg/flowering stage. Hope this helps and Happy growing.

Excellent question Larry. I fed them to my daughter's pet turtle. However, if you are looking to make fertilizer for your garden there are some great youtube videos on doing so. Try this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QvM6OjIvY3w What they say in making one of these makes sense and if this is what you want to do I really hope it helps. When and if I get to this point I will likely

For seedling plants I would recommend using 14 grams of the fertilizer per 5 gallons of water until the second flower cluster. Then increasing it to 29 grams for the remainder of the plant life. For nitrogen sensitive plant varieties I would recommend waiting till the fourth flower cluster to increase to 29 grams. I hope that helps, Brad.

I usually give the plants a little drink just before I add the fertilizer , and then a little more water afterwards , the plant pots sit in drip containers and as long as there isn't an over abundance of water , I just let the plants drink as they need to . I haven't had any problems feeding my plants this way . If I do get any fertilizer directly on the leaves , I use the spray nozzle on the kitchen sink to lightly rinse them off . I hope this helps , good luck , and have a wonderful day , or night whichever it may be .

Depends on what you're growing. I water with nutrients every other watering. Plus the box has stage by stage portion guide

Any time that the soil is not frozen. Test the soil at least every 3 - 5 years. In practical terms, I would test the soil when I'm thinking of fertilizing before planting. Follow the directions. Despite other reviews, I did not find it all that difficult to understand and do.

When it comes in you will need to put it together. Easy enough by just sliding pieces into place. Then you can add your soil and seeds as you wish. This is a very simple way to start gardening. Good Luck!

You pour on the roots after you mixing with waterno more than a gallon I would say. Fruits plants and trees also need an acidic fertilizer.

it is critical that you wait to fertilize your new grass again until four to eight weeks have passed. .. yes it can harm growth.

No, you provide soil and a small tomato plant. Have never done this from seed.

Yes, Id recommend adding 1/2tsp per gallon to the water first, then add your nutrients. Finally PH correct if needed as it tends to raise the PH a bit. My plants have stronger branches and tougher leaves after adding this to my hydroponic nutrients.

Absolutely! Once the seedlings begin to emerge, switch on the grow light so they won't have to elongate looking for light. (No need to turn the light on before that, since they're under the soil and unaffected by it.) Once the seedlings begin to hit the lid on the seedling tray, remove the lid, but leave everything under the grow light until you have enough true leaves to transplant the seedlings into bigger pots or into the ground. (Remember that you'll have to occasionally water them because there will no longer be any condensation keeping them moist.)

I just planted right away and sprouted beautifully. I don't really see the need for soaking or sprouting before planting.

It's my understanding that additional fertilizers are not required, however i do use Seachem Flourish Tablets in my tank along with the CaribSea Eco-Complete
