Grow Mediums James' first grow - DP Autoglueberry with autopots

[Theterpinator]

I don't think there is bro, these are from my biotabs run, autopot system variation:

I think the only 'downside' is if you're too much of a meddling grower, and add too many hot additives. I have run additional nutes but at relatively small concentrations.

Bro.....

If i end up with something remotely like that J i have done okay. That tent looks amazing Bro. Do you prefer the biotab route to normal nutes then. Is it just the simplicity of them?

Pretty much, they're organic too, I just haven't the time for mixing nutes. What turned me onto the tabs was the fact it's all mephisto use in house, and they partner autopots perfectly. l strongly recommend trying them dude.

Hi Hemi,

Not sure i am subbed for your latest one. I have just stocked up on nutes as my first grow so wont be getting on the bio tabs just yet. Are all reports good from the bio tabs, are there any down sides to using them?

Only downside I see is forgetting that you are growing plants and not fill the reservoir up from time to time.

I guess I could put a float valve in the reservoir to fill it with fresh water when needed. Of course you will still have to remember to cut them down after they are done. Maybe I can repurpose a roomba with trimming shears to cut them down and trim them.

Seriously though, I see no downsides yet. I have heard one person say they don't have enough cal/mag and another was thinking you should crush up one of the tabs for better dispersion. One of the reasons I am running these start to finish via the instructions is to see what the downsides are for myself. I'm not planning on adding anything after the seeds are dropped that does not come from BioTabs. After this first grow, if I do see areas that need improvement, I will supplement what I think it needs. Although for this run I will stick to their methods and only add more Orgatrex or foliar with their Boom Boom spray.

Yes follow Hemi's for a purist's approach, @2Stoned2Care 's mephisto stilton is also another example, which has recently been harvested. Which was run according to biotabs instructions.

Actually, I'm wondering about calmag deficiency for those of us running BioTabs under really intense LEDs. I know the BioTabs are supposed to be 1-size-fits-all, but I gotta think there may be a need for some adjustment under those conditions. It will be great if not. I'll find out next month, lol.

Only thing they say in the instructions is if showing deficiency to top feed it more Orgatrex.

Update Day 36

Yesterday I took a load of the lower fans and extremely small branches from the bottoms which won't result to much. They look alot better down below now.

They are growing around 1.5-2 inches per day i think. The height of the lamp maintained at 23", small white hairs appearing at the flower sites which is good.

I have noticed a fan with a small yellow mark on there, can anyone advise what it is?

When this Res is empty i am thinking i should change to bloom nutes. I would like to get some input bro's

Looking good bro, don't think that little bit of yellow is anything to worry about, you get random growth/ coloration sometimes.

I'd hold off on the bloom till stretch stops and flowers start to form.
