Yer shouldnt be a problem. Sorta realized I could have started feeding a bit earlier aswell even with this hot ass soil. I know for next time though.
I was gonna say wait because they look just fine!

They do look healthy but I would have expected a bit more growth since those first leaves came out (not catyledons). I dont know autos though. Also you guys are more qualified than I soo yer lol.

Do you use microbe blends? What nutes would you use?

I haven't yet but I plan to. I have been messing about with molasses early on and I THINK it has done them good. But Im in soil and any good soil will already have good microbial activity anyway. Thats what the mollases feeds, then they feed the roots. Im sure if I put great white in when i planted and transplanted though the 2 would work well together. But I honestly dont know enough about coco to answer that, in soil Id say F*** no. All I know is when you do decide to feed especially if its any time soon, go to a maximum of 1/3 of the reccomended amount maybe even a quarter but I just didnt wanna sound like a pussy haha.
I use a very little known brand called plant magic+. Its made locally and is made for our local water which is quite hard. I use magnecal+ (tons of good shit this brand is made to be used every time you feed to prevent deficiencies rather than treating them it also holds a portion of the N which is usually in the grow fomula) also their grow formula. But I just yesterday got some of their spray formula for foliar feeding and my girls loved it.
Maybe a foliar spray may be a better way to go at this early stage? Any thoughts people?

no microbes i use the plagron cocos line with powerroots and greensensation as additives ... so i ended up prepping one liter with 0.5ml of cocos A and B and Powerroots that makes for 1/6 recommended dose of base nutes and 50% recommended powerroots ...

I start my light fertilizer about day 5 - 1/4 of label strength. Haven't seen any burning at all.

Sounds like a good start to their feeding. Especially in CoCo they will need something to feed on. Keep in mind that you will need to give them some Cal-Mag before too long.

As soon as I hit mine with a little bit of calmag they perked up a bit.

Oh ok. I dont know then ill have to let someone else chime in on that. Only things I can think of is maybe the lights a bit much? Or not humid enough. Have you been spraying the leaves when you water? I spray mine every day but thats me, ive been battling low humidity
Looks like a lot of the JH that's going around these days, so I'm guessing genetic. No reason this grow shouldn't have a genetic variation in the leaves. Not quite an albino but still...

Wouldn't worry about the mottling on the first leaves. I've gotten a bit of that in the past and the plant grew out of it.
