I've grown before for a while now, but for the first time, I'm using a brand new hydroponic setup. It's an ebb and flow system, super basic, nothing fancy. I put my first seeds in Monday, and today, at 5 pm when checking on them, I had two sprouts already. (no I didn't sprout first then put into the hydro) My question is about emulsions. I have some, they stink to high hell and back, but my question is, do they help? Hinder? What?
I did find some info:

Organic fertilizers such as fish emulsion and other blends contain trace elements which are found in the organic matter from which they are derived.
Most indoor plant fertilizers are water-soluble. A few of them are time-release formulas which are mixed into the medium as it is being prepared. Plants grown in soil mixes can usually get along using regular fertilizers but plants grown in prepared soilless mixes definitely require micronutrients.
As the seeds germinate they are given a nutrient solution high in N such as a 20-10-10 or 17-10-12. These are just two possible formulas; any with a high proportion of N will do.

But it doesn't really say if it's bad, or good. http://users.lycaeum.org/~sky/data/mjgrowers.html is the source by the way.

Will it kill the THC? Cause a "taste"? I've done water growing, but not on such a "pro" level, simple as my new set up is, it's still more than I usually have done.
