Grow Mediums How long to top feed before root establishment?

[PK1017]

What's up guys. I recently purchased the 4 pot Autopot system (not the XL, the 3 gallon ones I believe) to set up in my tent. This is my first time using autopots, as well as my first time growing from seed (recently took in a seedling, which is growing outside atm). I currently have 5/5 seeds sprouted in paper towel in a plate, and the tap roots are getting pretty long. I'm just stabilizing my Rockwool, then I will be putting these babies in to cubes in a tray, under an LED, with a dome as well as a heat mat.

My question is, when the seedlings are ready to be transported to the autopot, how long do you have to top feed for until roots are successfully established? I was reading in the autopot manual to feed for 10-16 days on average before you turn on your systems.. What do ya'll think?

From wat I've seen it just around day 15 to 20 or as wide as pot roughly

What do you mean by as wide as the pot roughly?

What do you mean by as wide as the pot roughly?

Here width = the plant's diameter; the distance between farthest tips of opposite leaves; or when tips of leaves extend to the outer rims of the pot.

Welcome aboard. There is an autopot forum here. It is full of growers at all experience levels asking questions. You can read lots and lots of grow threads. I really wish I had an easy to follow system on "how to grow cannabis". You will learn and have fun.
