Errors committed during the test was not measuring wet to dry weight out of then plants
Results: more THC crystals were found on the treated plants even though
top booster was used only for 4 weeks. These crystal started to reach the large fan leaves of the plant. Plants treated with
Aptus top booster had higher yields. See picture as the small plants in front are from booster X.
Plants exhibited higher crystal production, more intense aromas and oils compared to the counter parts and previous harvest with booster X.

Well this test was interesting as there was a clear difference but wish I did the other test in brix as well as dry weight vs wet weight. If anybody has some cool other areas to test would be appreciated so I can better the report .
Bless; love and gratitude :harvest:
