I understood 6 months was the general recommendation as the iron stores that bub was born with are depleted by that time and need to be replenished through food. Also their intestines are more mature to be able to cope with solids.

That said if they aren't interested or have still got the tongue thrusting then they may not be ready.

In either case milk is their primary food for the first 12 months.

DS turns 6 months on Sunday and we intend to start him on farex.
