BioTabs | Sour Diesel S1 - Ripper

@Slurpy_Terpy, Thanks, mate!!! Happy growing !!!

@@CDF20, Salut! Alors I recently found out its best to only add the tabs after like 14-20 days after the seedling comes out the ground. I currently use plagron seedling & cutting mix with some worm castings and light startex and light initial feed with bactrex and orgatrex in a 1-1.5L pot, then after 14-20 days I transplant to 10-15L pot and add only 1 tab, I veg for another 20-40 days, add 1 more tab (or only 1/2 a tab if the plant is small) about a week before flipping to 12/12. I realize that growing with this mix under led lights the plants border on mag deficiency so next time I mix the soil I will add some dolomite lime. Si ta pas encore achete, check les mix de nutri sur le site de thehighchameleon, ca a l'air detre meilleur et je vais test ca apres. Mon pb avec les biotabs cest que la dose des biotabs en function de la taille de la plante est tres important (sinon ta rapidement des carences ou exces), et au debut de la phase vegetative ce nest pas facile de savoir quelle taille la plante fera.... Donc au debut jai fait lerreur de mettre 2 tabs dans un pot de 10L puis la plante etait reste petite et poussait presque plus a cause d'exces de nutri je pense... En tout cas je trouvais que pousser en hydro c'etait plus simple car javais 100% de controle alors que la avec les biotabs faut avoir de la chance on dirait... Jai pas fini avec les biotabs la je suis au debut de mon 3eme run, jvais bientot mettre mes agenda du 2eme run.

@Slurpy_Terpy, That's OK! I'll definitely stay tuned to what transpires. I am learning just how tricky it can be to master a growing method to get the absolute most from the plants. So, you're a good grower for me to keep in focus with a good pair of military grade binoculars. And I do hope it's the good phenotype! 🙏👍

@@@T4pr00t, Thanks for the support! I will need to get lucky to not have any issues this grow since its my first run using the biotabs system (basically dry amendments to mix through your soil and some bacteria and liquid nutrients for the bacteria.. and later in flower a pk compost tea every 10 days or something). However I am hoping/betting on this living soil growing technique to supply/'fix' the plants with exactly the amount of nutrients the plant wants to have, with as goal to have smoother burning buds but also more and more diverse terpenes. FYI yesterday I added uvb supplement to my two cbd plants (I don't have a diary of them yet, they are in hydro in my bubba kush diary - bubba was a hermie though) -> since adding the uvb i checked this morning and rubbing my fingers against the buds the resin is CLEARLY more liquid/oily, even my GF pointed it out (without me telling her) and she usually doesn't notice much going on with the plants and finds they all smell the same apart from this current batch after the uvb she is smelling mango/incense/citrus etc so I think its making a big difference. I used to have more terps without uvb with other lights than mars hydro sp3000, maybe the uva in this sp3000 causes the resin to mature in a weird way, because I have never had so few terps in my first 100+ plants before I had the sp3000 (but I changed more things in my setup so not sure if its the light, it has been bothering me since a year now!). Anyway, I am hyped for this sour ripper! The reviews on her all point out her flavor is on point (I saw many positive reviews on french forums), and she won some competitions in the recent years and since its an S1 seed there should be a big chance of getting a/the good phenotype! Hyped :D :D :D She will also share the tent with a few sour kush (reserva privada) seeds, that are having a tough time germinating (started 6, will keep 2) so I hope they come from one of the good old batched of Reserva privada, before their mother plants got seized by authorities.... Sorry for the book haha

@Hooman, Hey! The minimum you can for the first 20 days from germination it is nearly not needed. I would only add the tab at the earliest 14 days after germination and do only max 1/4 tab, maybe even less :D this way the plant ends up healthier and growing faster. Adding the tab directly after/at germination will stress out the plant and slow down the process. Good luck!
