The fert I have is organic 5-3-3 and was wondering if anyone thinks that it will get the job done? Thanks in advance!

5-3-3 will be good for the veg stage.Once the vert growth slows down change to a flowering nute higher in phos and potassium.It;s also a good idea to use some cal-mag to keep the ph in line'.:smokebuds:
I will have to check again but I think the fert says it has calcium and magnesium in it so hopefully it will be sufficient!
I should also ask since my fert is organic, should I still use 1/4 the strength the bag recommends? I heard it's very hard to burn plants with organic fert but better to be safe and ask.

Here is a couple pics of day 11. Should I start giving fertalizer now or wait till the leaves start to look pale?
Also, from what I can tell from my newbie eyes is that the plant looks alright but it's not that deep green color. Does it turn more dark green when it get's bigger?

It looks good right now, give her about another week before you start any ferts. Then start out about 1/8 dosage and see how she responds. She won't darken up for another few weeks. You don't want dark green, that is a bad sign. The color she is at now looks perfect. If she starts getting to green it is a good sign you are over feeding which will wreak havoc on your soil, cause the ph to drop quickly and then cause problems with nutrient lock out. Go slow, it is always better to under feed a little that over feed. Once you have overfed it takes a week or more to get back on track.
A420er BTW, you are right growing yours 1st plant is like losing you virginaty!
So here is some pics from tonight. I gave her first feeding of organic 5-3-3 fertalizer at about 1/4 strength. When I look really close it looks like she is showing her sex already but the little hairs appear green. Are the female hairs green when the plant is this small or when they first come out? I couldn't get pics of the hairs because they are too small.
Pyro, I think what your are seeing as green hairs are the next set of leaves in their earliest visible form. S/he doesn't really look close to showing sex yet.
