Nutrients 1Sky jumps into AutoPots with Biotabs

[Only1Sky]

Well, my 1st ever MJ grow (AN nutes in fiber pots) is wrapping up, but I can't wait for final harvesting, so I'm jumping into a 2nd grow, but this time with a 4 AutoPot set-up and the Biotabs system. Based on the journals I've been reading on these two technologies, I just can't resist the temptation to simplify the grow process without sacrificing yield or quality. And as a noob, I have no long-term historical allegiance to a past style of grow.

Here’s my set-up:

· AutoPots are the standard 4x 3.9 gallon system
· Biotab system includes the standard Kit plus Boom-Boom, but no PK-Booster
· LED by Amare Technology SolarECLIPSE SE450UVB
· 4’x4’ Gorilla tent
· Coco/Perlite 70/30
· Reverse Osmosis water
· Tools: Blue Lab EC & PH tester, Control Wizard Soil pH & Moisture Meter, Acurite temp & RH meters

My plants are:
· 2x of Girl Scout Cookies (FastBuds Seeds)
· 2x of Sweet Tooth (Barney's Farm)

Started dropping seeds on May 1st, but had lots of problems with germination. To make a long & boring story short, 7 seeds of various strains all failed on me. But I'm now off an running with my 4 pots -- just not all at the same start day. I've got the two Fastbuds GSCs and one Barney's Farm Sweet Tooth now at about 32 days, and a second Sweet Tooth which is about 3 weeks behind.
A chronicle of the process to date will follow soon.

Been curious of the autopots. Is this a soil grow then?

The medium is 70% coco and 30% perlite.

Now I'm very curious! You should try going direct sew next time, works great in Coco after a soak.

Sorry, what do you mean by "direct sew"?

Just plant your seeds directly in the Coco instead of using those plugs as starters. Gives you just a little quicker start in my opinion. In soil I think it's probably a good idea to use those plugs that way at least that's the way I do it.
