DivineBuds420 This grow is a sponsored run.
The seeds for this diary were kindly provided by Kannabia Seeds, and the nutrients are sponsored by BioTabs. Big thanks to both for the support – as always, everything shared here is based on my real experience and honest observations.
I’ve actually been running BioTabs long before this sponsorship. It’s simply the system that fits my organic, low-stress growing style best. Once the soil is prepared properly, things become very hands-off — prepare well, then let the plant do its thing 🌱
The goal of this grow is exactly that: keeping it simple, organic and stress-free, focusing on healthy development and letting the genetics speak instead of pushing extremes.
If you’re curious about the BioTabs system, you can use discount code GDBT420 for 15% off in the official BioTabs shop.
Let’s get started ✨
Pink Gelato was germinated using the same paper towel method and environmental conditions as RS11.
One seedling emerged with its seed shell still partially attached, most likely because it was planted slightly too shallow.
To prevent further restriction, the shell was carefully removed by hand.
During this process, one of the first true leaves was likely slightly damaged.
This is now visible in somewhat irregular early growth, and the seedling is currently developing a bit slower compared to the others.
Aside from this minor early issue, the plant remains stable and healthy.
At this stage, the focus is on maintaining calm, stable conditions and allowing the seedling time to recover naturally.
Early patience is key – plants often compensate very well for such small setbacks 🌸

DivineBuds420 Pink Gelato has entered the vegetative phase and continues to develop steadily.
Despite the small setback during germination, the plant is growing consistently.
Development is still slightly behind compared to RS11, but there are no signs of stress or further issues.
As with RS11, no active work was needed during this week.
Only occasional light misting with water was done to support hydration and maintain adequate humidity levels.
Growth remains relaxed and stable, and the plant is slowly finding its rhythm again.

DivineBuds420 Not much has changed this week. Both plants are growing steadily, although the previously injured plant is slightly behind the other one. I expect this difference to balance out over time.
You can clearly see where the leaves were damaged earlier, and they are now growing a bit twisted and deformed as a result. The larger plant is already showing strong indica traits with big leaves and thick fingers.
During the week, the plants will most likely be transplanted into a larger pot and will receive their BioTabs treatment – including nutrients and beneficial microorganisms. Basically the whole organic setup. I’m confident they’re going to love it.
I’ll be away on vacation for a few weeks after this update, so some diary entries may be posted with a slight delay. The plants will be taken care of and watered during that time, and progress will still be documented.
Both plants were successfully transplanted into 3.5 liter pots and received the full BioTabs treatment, including microorganisms and nutrients.
The substrate is based on reused and reconditioned soil with roughly 50% perlite mixed in. The base soil is BioBizz Light Mix.
Since watering is done exclusively with osmosis water, about 7 g of dolomite lime per liter of soil was added to provide proper calcium and magnesium buffering.
This run marks the first time following the BioTabs “just add water” strategy.
The substrate was prepared accordingly and amended with Startrex and Silicium Flash.
Before placing the plants into their new pots, Mycotrex was sprinkled directly into the planting hole and one BioTab was added to each pot.
After transplanting, the leaves were lightly sprayed with Boom Boom Spray.
The substrate was then watered with osmosis water mixed with Bactrex.
Everything went smoothly and the plants handled the transplant very well.
From here on, it’s all about letting the biology do the work.
