Kind Nutrients Seedling Starter

Kind Nutrients Seedling Starter is a specially formulated blend of nutrients for young cannabis plants. It’s the first stage of the Kind Nutrients program, giving seedlings what they need to establish sturdy roots and grow into healthy, resilient plants.

N-P-K 11-39-12: The high phosphorus level supports root establishment, a moderate dose of nitrogen supports healthy early leaves, and potassium supports overall plant development. The blend also supplies essential macronutrients and micronutrients for this stage.

When to use: Stage 1, weeks 1–2 of the seedling stage.

Dosage: The feeding chart calls for 0.14 oz in 2 gal of water in week 1 and again in week 2. Each 0.35 oz pouch is enough to feed at least 6 plants through their initial growth phase.

Tips: Seedlings are delicate, so don’t exceed the recommended dose. Keep your irrigation water near pH 6 and let the medium dry slightly between waterings so young roots get enough oxygen. After week 2, move on to Growtime Fertilizer for the vegetative stage.

Part of the program: Seedling Starter is the first of six products in the Kind Nutrients 6 Pack. Each one is built for a specific stage, so your plants get the right balance of nutrients from day one. Before feeding, make sure your growing medium sits in the ideal pH range, and follow the chart rather than guessing. Excess nutrients are harder to fix than deficiencies.

Key features

• N-P-K 11-39-12, phosphorus-rich for root development
• Stage 1: use in weeks 1–2
• 0.35 oz pouch, feeds at least 6 plants
• Dose: 0.14 oz in 2 gal of water per week
• Water-soluble; for soil or hydro

How to use

1. Mix 0.14 oz into 2 gal of water in each of seedling weeks 1 and 2.
2. Dissolve the dose fully in room-temperature water and stir well.
3. Check the pH of the finished solution and adjust as needed.
4. Follow the feeding chart and don’t give more than recommended; overfeeding can cause nutrient burn.
5. Weigh each dose on a small kitchen scale for accuracy.

FAQs

How do I use Kind Nutrients in soil?

Fill a clean watering can or bucket with water, add the recommended amount of each product, and stir until it is fully dissolved. Check the pH (6.0–7.0 for soil) and adjust if needed, then water thoroughly without overwatering. Let the soil dry out slightly between waterings so the roots get enough oxygen, and watch your plants for signs of deficiency or excess.

Can I use it in a hydroponic system?

Yes. Add the recommended amount to your reservoir, stir until dissolved, and keep the pH between 5.5 and 6.5. Check the EC (electrical conductivity) as well: as a general guide, 1.0–2.5 for seedlings and cuttings, 1.5–2.5 in the vegetative phase and 2.0–3.5 in flowering.

How often should I water?

Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Depending on plant size, container, medium and environment, soil-grown plants usually need water once or twice a week, or less. Excess nutrients are harder to fix than deficiencies, so adding nutrients every other watering helps prevent overfeeding.
