When do i add nutrients to my plants

I’m using FFOF soil and my girls are about 11 days since I planted them. Is it ok to add nutrients now? If so whats the schedule like? Because according to fox farms guide it says to feed 2 times per week so should I feed,water,water,feed?

I use ffof and dont add anything until just before I start the transition to flower except microbes like Mykos , Azos or Mammoth P

I would be thinking about re-potting to largest container possible for environment and not fertilize until its close to 4 weeks old…

I would take @Oldstoner advice.
I personally don’t start feeding them until the 4th or 5th node but as oldstoner stated the fox farm ocean soil has quite a bit of nutrients in it already so you most likely won’t need to add any for a while.
But I would definitely wait if it were me.

Yeah I’m re-potting them tommorw. Ok so probably another 3 weeks then? And how does the water-feed cycle work?

It’s a matter of personal preference really. I’m using GH nutrients and I’m on a feed feed water schedule.

Definelty wait until the 4th or 5th node to even consider it though. There’s plenty of nutes in the soil and in their feeder leaves to get them by.

Your plant will tell you when she wants nutes.
When her leafs start to turn yellow.
Repotting to something larger with more FFOF will delay that even more .
Monitor ph extra close when transplanting.
