You need to be using your nutrients right from the beginning in Coco. Hopefully you have a pH pen and an EC meter.

I actually deal in total dissolved solids instead of electrical conductivity. But a good starting feed would be around 250 to 300 parts per million at 5.8 pH.

Let me look back and see if you have your nutrient line listed if you do I'll give you some recommendations.

Never use biobizz nutrients and I'm not really familiar with them but I would go ahead and follow their recommendations for a Seedling and then check with your total dissolved solids work EC meter and see how strong that feed is.

You also need to check your water source and see what the total dissolved solids of your water sources that could affect how much you'll be able to feed your plants.

Ok so I need to get an EC Meter lol I have my ph pen an stuff like that but as I say just starting out so there prob many things i need to get I also see I need to get some sort of ppm reader as well lol

I have been saying phrases like total dissolved solids and electrical conductivity I should also have said parts per million they are all very similar. Your meter will let you select which one to use I use parts per million which is the same as total dissolved solids. Electrical conductivity is something completely different.
