Which nutrients and when to add

Hello all. I am a first time grower and very excited. I just planted 6 days ago and already all have sprouted up. I am using a hydro bubbleponics set-up. I am using only distiled water right now. no nutrients or anything. I know you are not suppost to feed seedlings but when do I add the nutrients? :confused:
also about the nutrients. I was looking at the advanced nutrients sensi grow A/B and I read up on it and it seems like it will be the best. any thoughts?

im using A.N SENSI BLOOM RIGHT NOW WRKS WONDERS LET ME TELL YA . ANY QUESTIONS LET ME KNOW I USED SENSI GROW ANS ITS GREAT BUDDY HOLLA AT ME IF U NEED ME
 
also. i do not have a CO2 calculator or regulator or anything. what i have is a cracker and alot of 12gram small neck CO2 tubes for like airsoft guns and what not. i calculated about how much CO2 i need and it says
Grow room area: 80 cubic feet
Amount of CO2 required: 0.096 cubic feet
On time: 5.76 minutes
what does it mean by On Time: 5.76 m? can i just crack open like 5-10 tubes every day or what?
 
I personally like to add nutes when the plant has at least 4 true leaves not including the cotyledon leaves(baby leaves). And like stated earlier at 1/4 strength to start.

GH...im using GH at the moment and its much better than DutchMaster...wat i was using before...based on the Lucas Formula...maybe u shud check out the Lucas formula...more info about Lucas at http://forum.grasscity.com/ i think
 
So I'm new here and about to start my first grow! what if i went with just some plain soil with no nutes added and got some dyna-gro? how do you think that would work out?

stay away from advanced nutrients. they are not worth the premium price

personally I would use

Dyna-Gro Foliage-Pro
Dyna-Gro Liquid BLOOM
Dyna-Gro Pro-TeKt
Dyna-Gro Mag-Pro


with these 4 you could have amazing results and I think they are all under $30 total?

Advanced Nutrients splits up all of the minerals your plants need into 15 different products all of which cost $30-40~ each. You can buy nutrients with all of the minerals in one container for $10


it's up to you if you wanna be like the cool kids who can afford the super expensive stuff, lol
 
dang thats crazy. yeah I am a huge believer in good name brands but that mainly applies for electronics. I will have no problem with gettin nutes that are $10-$30 total :)
I just had to order quick because my plants are getting older. they are now 10 days old and 5 outa 6 have 4 leaves (not counting the first two leaves you get that are at the bottom)
