Start Seedlings straight in Happy Frog Soil?

I've gotta question currently I'm growing a plant(bag seed) about 2 weeks, looking pretty good so far(first MJ grow BTW). I germinated this seed in paper towels and the put it into plain jane Jiffy seed starting mix & it is still growing there. Now this is where my question starts.
I recently purchased some seeds; Mazar(FEM), White Satin, & Original Haze x Skunk 1(freebie :smoke2:) So now that I have things more situated and good seeds I want to get a better growing medium. I've been looking at what other people are making & using & what not, as well as the pre-mixed stuff. I really like the Fox Farm Happy Frog because it contains things that I'm interested in using. With that being said is it safe to raise a seedlings directly in a soil with things like; guano, earthworm castings, humic acids, etc or should I let the seedlings grow out a while in a seedling starter mix or something of the such, then transplant into Happy Frog, etc????

Thanks in advance :bongrip:
 
Your seedlings should be fine.I started some in FF Ocean Forest with no problems.
 
I did my first grow with Happy frog Potting Soil, did the job. I'm using Happy Frog Ocean Forest now at about 4/1 Happy Frog potting soil, seems to be doing the trick until they get bigger. Although this was an organic grow with a bit of natures living soil mix in there too? I had to end up adding blooming nutrients because the plant was suffering a bit. So now I have to remember that I have to flush a week or two before harvest. With Organic 'all the way through' there is no need to flush at all.

You'll be fine no matter what seedlings you use, they pretty much don't even feed from their roots for the first week or two of sprouting, every thing they need is in those first two lobed leaves to get them started. Then they crave the nitrogen in the soil. I've had to much nitrogen and my leaves all had that witchclaw, the tips all pointing downward. If you're adding compost of some kind, make sure its mixed really really well. I think I left clumps of pure compost in my mix, and the plants roots maybe just ran into it at the wrong time?

Ya live and learn.
Good luck!
