Hey everyone!
Was wondering if anyone out there has any experience using supersoil as a medium?
Last year I did both my grows using supersoil in 5 gallon smart pots, with roots organic as the base soil in the top half of each pot and subcool's supersoil mix in the bottom half. I transplanted my seedlings in light warrior to smart pots the beginning of week 3 and by week 4 my plants seemed happy growing over an inch a day. However, week by week 5 it was a different story...
On about 50% of my plants began to develop weird symptoms of "taco-ing" where the leaves would fold up in half along each finger and the tips would curl over and downwards. Other plants among the group were completely healthy. By mid flowering all the signs of "taco-ing" had disappeared but on some of the plants that suffered badly there was discoloration sat the tips of the leaves that started yellow and eventually faded to brown and crispy. My total yield was just around .6 gram/watt of lighting which isn't great and I feel this is where my grow definitely underperformed.
A couple factors to consider:
Last season I wasn't running co2 in my room just exhale mycelium bags and this could be the biggest factor contributing to lower yields.
I didn't have my room outfitted with enough dehumidification and a.c. capabilities which led to large variations in humidity, which from what I understand can affect your vapor pressure deficit causing symptoms similar to nutrient deficiencies to occur.
I was happy with the potency of my harvest however I felt the flavor and yield weren't 10/10.
Any advice offered or experience with supersoil would be much appreciated!
Peace and positivity!
