General Organics Go Box question?

So I have 2 C99 babies on day 13 from sprout. I started them in 16oz styrofoam cups full of Light Warrior. One of them started yellowing on about day 9 watering with only distilled water. I recently transplanted them into 5 gallon smart pots full of Roots Organic, Light Warrior, perlite, and lime in a 5/1/1 ratio and 2 tbls of lime per gallon. My question is should I be adding any of the Go Box nutrients in on my next watering? I know I dont need the Bio Thrive Grow yet but was more curious about the Bio Weed, Bio Root, Black Diamond, and CaMg+. I posted this question in my journal but there isnt too much action there yet so any help from some Organic pros would be appreciated.

Here is some pics if it matters..

no feeding chart from GO? i would assume some bioweed would be good, same with some cal/mag. i dont know what black diamond or bio root is. i would also assume that there is enough nutes in the dirt for at least 2 weeks for seedling...any nute ratings on the roots soil?

Ya there is a feeding chart but it starts from rooted seedlings and I'm not exactly sure what "rooted seedlings" means and we all know you cant exactly trust feeding charts. Bio Root is a root stimulator with a 1-1-1. Bio Weed is a soil ammendment for roots, stems, and foliage with a 0.2-0-0.3... Black Diamond is a Humic Acid. I just watered them last night so it will probably be a while before my next watering. Just wondering if any of these will speed up the process cause they seem small to me for 2 weeks old. My last/first grow was way ahead of these but they were a different strain and were sprouted in straight FFOF.
Same day as my C99's.. These are Northern Light x Skunks.

Ya I was definitely going to give them some Bio Root. How did the Go Box treat you? Thanks for the input guys..

I wish more companies would just admit that a lot of people grow weed with their products and take that in to account when making feeding charts. Im sure there are thousands of people out there that have burnt the shit out of their plants by following schedules.. Thats why these forums are so important!!

i followed the chart when it came to how much to feed, not necessarily on the weeks(obviously).
humics, bio marine, bio weed i would use about every other week at max. i shot for every 2 weeks if i could remember the last time i used them... haha
believe there are instructions on not using one of them in flower, forget which.

i have no complaints about GO, great products. i just made the switch to super soil as it better fit my grow.

I use GO and like it. Easy..I use the online soil chart and start at 1/2 strength at 3 weeks in. I also use Great White and Arcos nitrogen fixing bacteria.

When you say that you use 1/2 strength do you mean all of the bottles or just the Bio Thrive Grow and what kind of soil are you using?

I would go full strength with the whole line like it says on there online feeding chart, seems to be pretty hard to burn plants with this line. The feeding chart on line is a modified version of the first one they put out. Also you might want to use a compost tea every now and then. They'll love it, super root growth with the tea. In flower I would go about 15ml on the bio thrive and like it says on the feeding chart for the rest of the line.

Ya I haven't heard many say they burnt their plants with this line. Got a good recipe for a compost tea and how often would you recommend it?
