I grew my last lot from seed in a soil that was 2.1 EC and everything was fine. Aplant will grow for a short time with no nutes,but if you dont feed by the 2nd lots of leaves,shes going japanese.
Could anyone explain the colouring of this seedling? Promix Soiless mix no nutes just pHed water so far: White Widow autoflower germinated July 27

Please call them and tell them you're growing in HYDRO (NOT soil, which has nutrients) and ask them when you should start the plant on nutrients. IF they tell you something like, "when it has 3-4 new sets of leaves" please ask them how the plant can survive that long on plain H2O. Also, ask if there's any risk in giving nutrients to a young seedling and see if they mention anything about the possibility of burning delicate roots.
I have NOT called them in years, so this is not a setup and I'm truly interested in what they tell you, so please report back. I think it will be an interesting 3rd party perspective from people who's job is to assist cannabis growers.
Also, keep in mind, that their answers will be based on HYDRO. If you prefer, you can also ask them if their answers would be different if you were growing in soil, but I suggest using hydro because hydro has virtually no nutrients present (trace amounts if using tap water and not R/O) and we should be able to assume the plant would need feeding sooner in hydro.
Let us know what you find out!

Hello again everyone! I hope everyone is well and growing along ! I havnt been able to get on here much this past week been so busy but I have some positive news to update !! My girl has come back to health and flourishing. After the first few weeks of worry about the patterning on her leaves (maybe being TMV) I ended up waiting on her to hopefully show further signs or to possibly outgrow whatever the cause may be! Me being novice I wasn’t sure but kept my research going! I ended up TRANSPLANTING all my autos at the same time 4 days ago and giving them a feeding using Sensi Grow A+B / CalMag / Voodoo juice. Since then they have all started growing steadily larger and getting bigger each day! That being said I’ll tell you how I went about transplanting my autos in another thread I found I had really good success this time trying a few tricks from a local grow buddy. 
So after a few days had past the WW#1 has started to grow out and show all healthy new leaves with no mosaic patterning !! She has perked up and joined her sisters in the life of healthy growth. Please check out my journal for all my new pictures regarding the updated tent fixtures and all of the girls in their new 5G smart pot homes!!!
Without further hesitation here is WW#1 after her transplant and new healthy growth coming in!!!
