Fertilized seeds

[lingus]

First time grower.
Using Deep Water Culture
Germinated seeds. taproots are like 1/8 inch in size or smaller.
Used papertowel method.
Setup my system and placed seeds in rockwool.

This is where I messed up.
I mixed 1/4 of nutients and added to tank.
Thinking I should have waited to add nutes?

If So.. should I drain tank and add new water or leave alone?
I did this this morning.

Any advise appreciated.

Seeds=water only.

I never had much luck with seeds in rockwool, but have been cloning in it for better than 20 years.

Good luck.

They were germinated (slightly). The directions with the system and on this forum weren't exactly clear on when to add nutes initially.
Guess I'll leave them and keep my fingers crossed...

I would remove the nutes, plain water only.

Seedlings need no nutes at all for several weeks.

Thanks..
Not to be a pain in the a55 but should I use lights while they're still under the surface of the rockwool?

I certainly would.

Hope you had better luck than I did. Probably my fault.
