When you say water only, have you used any nutes? Just curious

I used them once a few weeks ago and got a lot of spotting and drooping. I'm using bio bizz all mix soil, which is very heavy in nutes apparently (thanks to the good people on here for that info). My plants are painfully small and all the nutes they need, and can deal with at the moment is in the soil.
Bit of an update. Both plants are looking really good and healthy, its a shame that they are just so small, having said that they are growing well. Last night i gave them both a weak dose of the bio bizz stimulants i bought. The smaller of the plants got some root juice and the larger plant got some alg-a-mic. It will be another 2-3 days before they get any water again, i will see what affect the simulants have had. Im not sure if next time i should use just water or continue with the nutes.
Also, i started another plant at the weekend. I germinated a lemon auto seed i had and put it straight into a 3 gallon smart pot, bio bizz all mix soil again. With my current grow i started them in small pots, with the lemon auto ive gone straight into the big (final) pot. Its currently under the dome with the vents open, all steamed up. As soon as the seedling appears ill be ditching the dome. Ill also probably give it a very weak dose of root juice when it needs to be watered for the first time.

Some photos from day 40. Both plants seem happy and no bad reactions from the nutes I gave them two days ago. Shame they are so small as they seem very happy now. I think I will continue with the nutes now and see what happens. Also my lemon auto is just starting to poke through the soil this morning.

Day 45 from seed. Both plants looking happy. They seem to be happy with the nutes so last night I went all in and gave them 1ml each of root juice, alg a mic, and top max, ppm was about 500. They are getting about 500ml water every 2-3 days at the moment as the weather is very hot in the sun. They seem happy enough at the moment so I'll keep doing what I'm doing. Any help or advice is always appreciated!

Day 52 update. Both gsc looking happy and starting to show lots of flowering. Still very small, I think they are about 28 and 25 cm high. Weather here is good, air temp is about 30c during the day and 22-25c at night, very humid. They are getting about 8-10 hours direct sun a day then another 5 or so in the shade during late afternoon and evening. Both getting about a litre of water every 2-3 days depending on how light they feel/weather/soil dryness. I'm giving them nutes now. They get about 1ml of bio bizz grow and bloom, and I alternate between 1ml root juice and algamic (ppm about 750) They seem to be very happy. Only thing would be some weird markings on some leaves, not sure what it is but they seem happy so not too concerned (you can see this in a photo)
My auto lemon is at day 16 from seed (14 in soil), seems happy, only getting water no nutes (well just a few drops of root juice). Seems a bit small again, this time I've not used the dome at all and it's gone straight to the final pot, just hoping it grows to a reasonable size before it starts to flower and it's not a bonsai like my gsc. Any help/advice always welcome, cheers guys!
