Hey guys,
I have the Tropica app on my phone, not really using it but I thought it would be interesting to see when they suggest to start doing certain things. I know it wouldn't be possible to fully follow this anyway as my setup is non CO2 and the guide is based on a CO2 enriched setup.
Question though; I noticed it suggests not fertilising until day 21 and even once you do you should use ferts without N and P. I thought limiting N and P wasn't necessary? Or do plants still really not need this at the 3 week mark?
I haven't added any ferts yet because I assumed if the plants are still establishing, they're probably not putting much energy into growth.. So far there's minimal melting and no algae so who knows.
Interested to hear your thoughts.
