Too bad that there was some delay with getting the test products. because I already started a new grow. but because of the time left. I decided to do outdoor and use autoflower. I am testing GrowCaps nutrients. It contains all the nutrients needed for the whole cycle. Contains feeding for veg, bloom and has bloom booster. I am using seeds that I won from newbie of the month June. Cherry Bomb Autoflower seeds. I want to do this as cheap as possible. I only bought soil from the local home depot Praxis that cost 3,99 euro. Thats my only cost for now. To do this test I asked a friend of mine to help me out. We are both using Cherry Bomb Autoflower that's been germinated at the same time. And also doing outdoor. So I have one 11 liter pot with Grow Caps and another 11 liter pot with Plagron bat mix soil. Let see if we see any difference or maybe similarity.

Oke she is be doing really well and so far only water her 1 time a week just like it says in the discription. She got only 0.300 ml water this week. And the othe Cherry Bomb Auto with the Bat mix soil only is doing fine too they both look the same so far... Really happy with the seedling stage and veg stat for now.

Cherry Bomb auto is doing really good so far no problems at all and only once a week she gets water just like it says in the in the manuel. Today she started to show some white hair. So she is already in the flowering phase now. And the one with the Bat mix soil she is doing exactly the same but she is only a few milimeters shorter then the one with Grow caps. Overall I must say I am impressed that she is keeping reall good up with the bat mix.

So far both are doing really good and are growing at the same rate. I gave her only 400 ml water this week. And the one with the Bat mix soil is doing really good too and she looks really well fed. you can see that the bat mix soil is strong but the Grow caps is giving the plant exaclty the right amount of nutes that she needs. So far so good. She did grow reall fast taller this week.🙏

Well she is both doing really good. The Growcaps one she is doing perfect and getting exactly the right amount of feeding and she look so healthy. But the one with the Bat mix soil is growing fatser and the lower branches are longer then the one with Growcaps. But hey its Plagron bat mix soil its high quality soil thats what you supoose to expect. But for now she is doing perfect.

You can see that she started to flower now. Well everything is going fine and no deficiency at all so far. She looks super healthy nice green color. No stress and no nute blocks or what so ever. Growcaps is doing a damn good job! The one with the Bat mix soil is ofcourse growing how it supposed to be growing. Nice and healthy.

Well well I am really very impressed how Grow caps works! So far no deficiency at all. she has a nice green color and is healthy good in condition. The blooming is boosting really well. But wow I am really impressed with Growcaps. And she is getting the right amount of nutes at the right time. And the one with the Bat mix soil, as you can see she is starting to show Nitrogen and Cal/Mag deficiency. One of the reason is that all the nutrients are used up it was fertilized for 6 weeks. So now she needs a lil more Nitrogen. The other reason is that the soil with the bat mix only had rain water for watering for the last few days. And iwith rain water you will get Cal/Mag deficiency instead of using normal tap water. So now he will start to use tap water again. And hope the Cal/Mag will be back on normal levels. But so far Grow caps really is impressive!😍😨

Wow the trichome production is amazing she is getting so frosty now damn. I don't know if it is the strain or the Booster that is working now. But so far she is doing great and all good smell is really fruity holy shit. The soil with the bat mix is finaly catching up now and doing really good. She is getting Alga bloom now with each watering. I have to say the one with the grow caps is really doing its job tremendous.

Well both of them are doing now really fine and very nice. Too bad we started a bit late with the outdoor grow because the sun is getting less and its on a lower stand now. So we won't get any big cola's but hey she smells good and I think it will be a sweet smoke. She smells like fruity berry very sweet. But the growcaps is doing the work and I am still happy with it. Added only water so far no nutes just growcaps. She getting the right amount of nutes the release is really good on time and fase.

Well she is really frosty now and the smell is so fruity and sweet. The pistils a really light brown of color and some even almost still white. The one with the Bat mix has really matured more. The pistils are much darker and she looks all ready now. I think we will start this small harvest this weekend. let see how she still goes because mine still need some more time.😃

Well we harvest her at day 77 so that means she should be perfect matured now. Well I must say I am very pleased with the results and amazed too. It was really easy to only give water once a week. And at every stage it was just perfect and everything went normal no deficiency signs at all. And the growcaps is really good for beginners. This is really good to just have no worry's if you have a busy life. It also saves allot of money too because otherwise I would have to buy fertilizer separately for each stage. And the soil with the Bat mix did ofcourse the work. I must say that the growcaps is almost equal to a super enriched soil like bat mix. I have put my buds together with the bat mix one to hang and dry. So there will be as equal as possible. But let see after a few days of drying and maybe a few days of curing and do the taste test. And how much we harvest. I must say because of the late outdoor grow the buds are very small but lets see for the taste. 😍😍👊🙏👊🙏

This was a Cherrybomb auto the smell is very fruity and sweet. She is so easy togrow just make sure she get enought sun or light if you want to get a good yield. Although I started late in the summer I still got a nice small popcorn mini buds just to enjoy for a smoke of vaporizer. And with the growcaps it was only water and thats it. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Just make sure you don't over water her because that mistake can be made easily for beginners or if you dont follow the instructions. Compared to the bat mix soil I must stay the Bat mix soil is ofcourse superior the smell is more powerfull and the buds are thicker. The instruction said that you don't need to add anything and just use universalpot soil. It would be nice if the grower could could add some bat guano maybe with the growcaps for intermediate and or experienced growers. But I would for sure recommend the Growcaps and if the price is right every grower should havea few Growcaps in house.
