also if your perlite or soil has nutes in it already you should find out. | I've gone by this rule for the last year without any luck, My plants stayed small and most died, although I had a hand in that last part.  This time I started feeding as soon as they sprouted their first real leaves, and my babies are huge in comparison. I believe you probably fed them too much. From my experience feeding early pays off big time. Hope this helps, Tex
