roxdan So, in this grow I’ll be using autopots with biotabs for the first time. I’ve got the PPP pack which contains not only the biotabs but lot of their nutrients/soil preparation, enough for 2 of my plants.
The 8.5L pot was prepared some days before using AirBases and for soil is BioBizz lightmix. Soil preparation:
- 5g/L of Startrex
- Mycotrex on planting hole
- 1Tbps/pot of dolomite lime
- 2 Tbps/pot of diatomaceous earth
- Initial watering done with 10ml/L of Orgatrex and some Bactrex
The seed was germinated using the paper towel method and put in the soil when the taproot was big enough. The plan is to keep going water only 😁
I will only run two plants this cycle, starting with one to see if the tent can fit it and then if possible I’ll start another seed in a month or so.

roxdan First week of the seedling, she’s growing nicely.
Since the soil was moist from the initial watering, I’ve watered her with around 300ml, just water.

roxdan She’s growing nicely and seem quite happy. The stem is pretty strong already, so I decided to top her after the 3rd node, I think that she’ll recover without problems, and after that I’ll start the LST lessons.
I’ve only given her water so far, I’ll wait some more time before turning the autopots on.

roxdan She is doing great, recovered very well from the topping and I’ve started the LST lessons the past week.
Water only!
Around 16 of DLI, I’m slowing rising it.

roxdan She just entered flower, she’s growing very well, no signs of deficiency but she’s requiring some heavy defoliation, maybe she’ll get too big for my tent but let’s see XD.
I’ve turned the autopots on 1 week ago approximately, everything going great.

roxdan She's around third and fourth week of flowering, doing very good so far. I've might have pushed the lights a little too hard because she stretched a lot, but she's fine now.
In the last weeks I had to do many defoliations because she's very leafy and my tent is pretty small, but she reacted well.

roxdan She's doing well. Some top leaves were burned a bit by the light last week so I've turned the pot clockwise, it's under control. The smell is amazing and the buds are getting dense. She must be between week 4 or 5 of flower.
5mg/l soil startrex,
5mg/l soil silicium flash,
1tab per 5l soil
some mycotrex ( into the planthole)
and for watering bactrex
mixing well- adding the tabs and planting the seed
from then on just water
only in later flower some BIO PK 5/8
look into @mrs_larimar diaries, she uses autopot and the " Only - add water strategy"
@Mia_BIOTABS, Thanks for the information! So the orgatrex isn't needed? I ask because it came with my PPP pack and I've followed the nutrients chart that came with it.
@roxdan, its just another strategy- the nitrogensource are the tabs and silicium flash in the just add water strategy
the classic strategy, like with the ppp- pack , there you have the tabs and orgatrex
for autopot its easier if you use the "jaw_ strtegy- so you only give them water nothing else
