Sorry, only nutes I've used is fox farms. Most of us would need to know what soil your using to give a suggestion on when to start using nutes. Sorry I can't help with the bio bloom but there are plenty on here that can! I'm sure they'll chime in soon.
Im using bio bizz light mix?
anymore input on this anyone
:drool: Anyone else have an input on how my babies are looking after only 2-3 days under a red 250watt cfl

Looking good Brady 
If she were mine, I'd still have her under a makeshift humidity dome for another week, but she still looks fine.
As far as bio bloom, you don't want to start feeding her that until week 6ish when vertical growth stops, although if you search for biobizz feeding, there's a good feeding schedule in a thread here!
You'll be wanting to give her plain ph'd water for the first 2 weeks in light mix, and them start introducing "bio grow" nutes at about 1 ml per litre - but double checks that over at the feeding guide because its been a while since I did a biobizz grow and my info is old and a bit hazy
Hope this helps a little

My newest two sprouts are 3 days old as well (sprouted july 5th) They are under one half of my light fixture which is (half) 3 23w 2700k, 3 23w 6500k, 1 46w 2100k and 1 43w 2700k which is roughly the same actual wattage. 250w actual right? I'll take pics when I go home for lunch and pop em up on my journal. Make sure to keep them nice and moist, I killed one sprout from under watering, which was sad because it popped right away and was anywhere between 6-13 bucks hahaha... 
o well and YES BLUE IS RIGHT, cut a pop bottle top off there and make a little protective bubble helps a lot and put your mind to ease. It'll be neat to see Multi-Specrum VS Single Spectrum anyway 
My bulbs are at varying distances , but have not experienced any stretch with my others, and my 3 weekish old baby is nice and bushy with lots of secondary and tertiary growth and just shown her pistols yesterday. You can burn the plants with CFL's as I have learned, the plant will stretch until it reaches the desired height for light, so if it stretches move it a little closer. Better a little stretch then a dried up baby plant. With nutes... I'm at a loss with that at the moment too but remember that Auto's don't need much if anything until flower, preflower... I think. I havent added anything yet except once and got mild nute burn on tips so said screw it until growth is slowed or buds start. About half my soil mix is Miracle Gro.... yeah with the extended release but old so hopefully degraded nutes. But it'd be nice to have a grow buddy for sure.
