Feeding Seedlings

Post by drj123 »

Hi, at what age should I start feeding young lophophora seedlings, and if so what would you recommend to use. Thanks Dave.

Hi Dave,

I wonder what medium you are growing your seedlings in, also how old are the seedlings? Unless you sowed the seeds in a completely inert substance then they will have been getting some nourishment. If you do need to feed then Chempak 8 seems to be the preferred food of many growers, but follow the instructions on the packet.
