For good results don’t forget to add a liquid feed when you water the plants. This is not important if you are using compost as a medium. Perlite, vermiculite, rockwool etc are all sterile mediums, without feed your plants rely solely on the nutrients stored in the seed to grow (and of course sunlight). A good organic feed is worm wee, dilute 1:10 to water, there are also many hydroponic stores for manufactured feeds. Feed at least twice before cropping, your crop will mature faster and produce healthier plants.
