Aspirin is “prescribed” to seedlings no more than 3 times.
So, the first feeding is carried out on the fifth day from the moment the seedlings appear.
The second feeding is on the third day after picking, which can definitely cause stress to the plant.
The third time, a week before transplanting, so that the plants gain strength and easily take root in the new place.
