Yields before curing:
FloraSelf - 216 gram
Aptus - 178 gram


I will post the numbers after some humidity balancing in about 10 days.

Thanks you very much for joining my journal and adventure!

Cannawolf, I haven't checked yet, I need to.
I really doubt they changed much over the curing period.

Ghostmade, thank you for tuning in :)

I just finished curing the buds and let them dry further for the night, lowering the humidity from around 80% to around 60%. Should be good to smoke today.
I'll be back later today with numbers and hopefully an answer to your question.

The smoke is the same, but the FloraSelf yielded more and it is my winner :-D

I bought them at Hornbach, a huge store chain in Germany.
The FloraSelf was the cheapest organic fertilizer I found.

If I was to do it again I would use 70% of the fertilizer amount a non-fertilized soil base and add mycorhiza on the first watering for most strains.
For hardcore american strains I would add a cup of calk per 50L bag of soil - I had some cal-mag issues showing up.

Great grow, Fonzee!

Aptus has been getting a lot of buzz recently at the hydro shops. I am very interested in their time release pellets.

Golden State Organics on Amazon has a similar organic time release fertilizer that is 6-3-14 as well. I wonder if it is the same product.

I've been working with several slow release organic fertilizers and find them all to be quite similar. Currently, horse poop pellets work best for me. And it also the cheapest option I found so far.
