Seedlings looking good and yeah that sounds like a solid plan.
Nutrients Help My Biotabs Mephisto Grow Please
- Thread starter IndoorTropics
- Start date
Agree. All looks good so far.
I will add 2 biotabs to each 3 gal pot in a few days and i will prob give them a 25-35% (0.25g-0.35g) feed of bactrex again at same time and will not do the orgatrex again. Most pots had a 50-75% correct full feeding of everything when first Biotabs went in, but that was 10 days ago with old batch of seedlings, so maybe just a little boast to help them through till the tabs kick in.
I will have Calmag soon and will begin supplementing with that (no silicium available for this grow).
Thanks for all your help and getting me through these nervous times.
You're welcome. You should be good now but if you want some extra bud size get the BioPK for the late flower stage.
Thanks. I've been super focused on a dehumidifier for flowering stage ( My name is no lie hehe) but ya prob a great time to stock up whilst i have time.
Def will check out the BioPK. I dont have opportunity to shop regularly so anything else from their line you recommend? The silicium flash worth it or am i prob good just using Calmag? I prefer to avoid bulkier items where possible as much be shipped to tim buck two and pass customs etc, but eh, always wort a shot if u say its gonna help the gals.
Yeah you are good with calmag, no need for SF then. Starter pack + BioPK is all you need.
Also i noticed the starter kits that Dutch Passion sell through their website have SF instead of Orgatrex which is great as it eliminates the need for extra calmag. And i believe the starter packs they ship to US/AUS are the same. Something to keep in mind there...

Thanks. I am going to order some Bio-Pk then for sure. Should have it by end of week 3. Any advice on how much calmag to add, and how often? Does all calmag generally come in the same standard concentration? The Calmag i have is recommended to be added by 0.8ml per 1.6L of water every week. Is it really that simple with a once weekly feeding? I am not sure if the feeding/s should be done once per week or spread across multiple times and whether this dosage is potentially too much or too little?
BRIEF UPDATE:
Currently day 3. Weirdest looking seedling so far in pic "1" and color from all seedlings ranges from dark green (pic "1") to a lighter green (pic "2") and some others towards the darker green side(pic 3)
I plan to start posting more frequently once I survive the 1st week or 2. Humidity bit low sometimes but doing what I can. Between 40-60% RH mostly and temps 24-27c. 2x biotabs going into each 16L pot this weekend along with a 0.35g feeding of bactrex and begin regular calmag.

Can't really say about the calmag, it depends on many different factors, you might not even need to add it. I am using rain water myself so it's a must for me but if you use tap water then it might already contain enough in it. You can use it weekly as per those instructions on the bottle or you can wait until deficiencies arrive and start adding it then. Your choice but you should be fine adding it once per week as per instructions, go with the lower dosage. While you can overdo with the calmag it will take quite alot of it, the bigger issue with these calmag bottles is they are usually heavy in nitrogen so it's not unusual at all to get an N toxicity when adding too much.
Keep observing those seedlings but i think they will be fine.

Thank you. I appreciate you.
Am using home delivery reverse osmosis water with a PH of 6.7. So will start adding this weekend.
Have my eyes on it every couple of hours atm. Will hopefully post another positive update in a few days.
Sounds good.
You have a nice setup, once you get everything dialed in you will have some really nice and tasty plants. Man when i switched over to BioTabs i couldn't believe how good this system is. Before trying BT i pretty much gave up on hitting good yields with organics, my modified Tang's schedule plants were always so much bigger then when i used those organic bottles. I had plants growing out of my greenhouse this year with BT.
I also finished up my first grow with the SP-250, 2x Auto Brooklyn Sunrise plants in 5 gal. buckets and despite some silly mistakes that i did i got a bit over 280g out of them. Very pleased with that result.

Do you have a link? Would love to check it out.
I am definitely grabbing some Daquiri lime (100% sativa) as the sativa genetics will be good for high humidity. Tempted by some BrooklynSunrise, so funny you mention it, but overall should stick to 90%+ sativas with super fast flowering times. Now iwll be the ultimate test as I have chemdogging (freebies) and NCH (selected for my high humidity), if these can survive the humidity (will have a $300+ dehumidifier) and get through everything then we should be good. One small change in any variable and suddenly my environment is entirely out of whack. Takes a lot of time and hopefully will be worth it by my 2nd run at least as dont want to set the bar too high. I am here taking care for almost all of the first 4 weeks so let's see what happens. Then I will be more confident giving them some alone time.
P.S. Even me myself entering my small room with grow tent inside causes temp to increase by 1c almost over a period of time!
