Hi mitch

You use a AF-SOG technique to grow your plants.
Could you briefly describe how you do it, so others can do the same!
I believe you transfer your autos from smaller pots to larger pots and I was wondering when the best time would be to do this?
As many people still believe you shouldn't transplant autos, so it would be good to know the hows and when of the process!
Cheers

About 15-17 days from sprout is bang on the money for a lot
I believe it triggers the sexing a little earlier, but do it at the right time, and the plants really take off.

Or alternatively you could leave them an extra day or so in the smaller pots to purposefully stunt the plants a little - which would be better for a true sog.

We mainly transplant as we're always needing to work with the highest number of plants possible to make selections from.

And also working with regular seeds we'll typically lose half what we start as males.

Hi mitch
I see you stock Bio Tabs (currently out of stock)
Are they something you use to grow your plants?
If so what mediums are they best suited to and will you be restocking them for the European customers?

Is there any desire from Mephisto to get into photos?

Nope not at all. There's a lot of great breeders working photos already, and we have a good method and flow with the way we develop and produce our autos.

Plus space is at a real premium now,

Maybe if we got a second facility it could happen but doubtful.

I'd like to start producing mephisto regular seeds if there's enough demand

Hey Mitch, et. al - no question, just wanna say "Hi" and thanks for your stellar work. Top notch customer service, packaging & product. Triple threat!

I wear my Mephisto Genetics T-shirt all the time (with a sly grin the whole time)

Mitch, what has been your biggest breeding "surprise"?

Yes dude, the farm runs exclusively on biotabs and I haven't mixed liquid nutrients for at least a year now.

Organic soil is the target medium, I'm not a coco grower , you'd have to check but they could well work in coco too

That's a awsome idea @witchyhour would be a guaranteed customer

I've had to put the whole shop out of stock, to clear the Black Friday orders and have no new orders come in. But we do have them in stock, and things will all be marked back in stock once the boys have caught up on orders
