Seed looked very small and slightly cracked before sowing directly into soil. Very dark seed almost black. Wow…already started to sprout! Literally 48hours from sowing directly into soil. @420FastBuds 🔥🔥🔥 fire genetics! Keep up the good work, loving the strains. 72 hours and planted into finishing position. Looking to train this girl hard so planted off to one side of pot.

Good rapid growth this week! Decided not to add anything other then water. Plant looks good, maybe could do with a little nitrogen as looking a bit yellow but hoping it will pull itself though until I supply some extra food next week. The living soils products are supposed to be strong so don’t want to stress her out this week as she doing just fine.

Starting to feed with living soils auto grow products this week. Can’t really tell if it’s made a difference??? Can 100% say it hasn’t hurt her. Growth is still very fast and already showing bright white pistils! I think this one gunna need a lot of training to fit this in my tiny tent 😂

I knew she was gunna be big but she turning into a monster this week! Supplemented with a home made compost tea using the Living soils products and a half strength top dress as well. Not sure if to supplement once more with grow products before switching to Bloom next week??? Bloom switch on light went on day 26 as seeing a lot of bud sites now. 14+ colas 😳

This girl in full swing now! Have had to train every day for last week now, and feeling like a lot of work but definitely seem to be reaping the rewards. If I can keep environment in check she should yield well. @Livingsoils great products seem to be working well. Switched to bloom top dress this week and watered with a little organic Pk 4/8. Will increase organic Pk next feed and start to add molasses as well. I have also been foliar spraying with biosys every few days. Not sure if it’s helping but leafs look good and healthy so hopefully doing its job. I will brew another compost tea for end of this week to boost the soil life again.

Really happy with this girl!😁 She has taken the training very well and is putting out some great bud sites. The stretch and stacking is in full flow now. I have trained hard to keep this girl a low-ryder but hopefully high yielder. 🌱

I must say first of all that this girl has completely exceeded my expectations! Takes LST/HST with no problems at all. I almost think she likes it 😆. Other then slightly snapping one branch this week all has been straight forward. Had to up the watering this week as she drinks sooooo much now. I have been letting medium dry out quite a bit between watering and I think this has definitely helped this time around. Have been running Living soils dry amending products at 1/2 dose. Start of next week will get a compost tea to boost the medium until end of harvest. Will continue to run at half dose. I don’t think increasing the volume now would make any difference…she looks like she be ready in a few weeks??? Great plant and genetics. I would 💯 recommend for anyone wanting to grow autos. Fast, looks a good yielding plant, great colours and a light power plant/ haze smell to it. Can’t wait to taste. ✌️

Nothing much say! No obvious problems, buds slowly getting fatter day by day. This girl is fading hard now. Decided not to feed the soil going into week 9! She looks like she should make it to end on just plain water. Very pleased with her so far. Terps have a very Hazy smell with berries and hint of citrus. This girl gunna be a 10/10 🔥🔥🔥 ✌️

Day 59 and she ready to come down. 😳🤯😶‍🌫️ I was hoping to leave her another week but Trichomes have had another idea and I’m already starting to spot some ambers. This girl has a true sativa heritage so want to keep it that way and she definitely will be chopped on the morning of day 60. No 24hr or 48hr dark period! I think this myth is BS and potentially damaging to finished product. I’m hoping for 50gr upwards on dry flower…could be double 😅🤞. She looks like she has a good yield and she has been a pleasure to grow. Not one problem encountered in 60days 🙄. So easy to grow….I ❤️ this strain. Ty @#Fastbuds 🔥🔥🔥 This has been a 100% organic grow with only 100% dry amending products @#livingsoils used with some fantastic results (🚫NO PGR’s🚫) I would recommend this strain to anyone wanting to grow sativa heritage autos. Takes to low stress training very well and also done well when completely bending (HST/supercrop ping) branches. Doesn’t require too many nutes to do well. I found foliar feeding every few days/every week in veg really helped this process. I have not measured any PH, EC, PPM or TDS in pot, soil runoff or feeds this time around. I have been completely relying on the organics in pot to balance it all out for me. This has worked a dream this time around and Im looking forward to getting another bean into this medium for next run….C4, Blackberry or LSD-25 #Fastbuds??? Will update harvest once dried, cured and smoked 💨💨💨 Blessings to all the community, thanks for joining me ✌️

This has been my favourite strain to grow to date. From day 1 the growth has been rapid and has continued all the way to day 60. Faster finish then expected. I grew this in a makeshift tent I have outside so have been keeping eye on wether most days to keep things in check. Other then worrying about RH levels and heat stress….the plant has taken care of herself. Finished up at 343grams on whole plant 😳 After wet trim 220grams of tight black, purple, orange and green nugs. Colours are amazing 🤩 45grams of wet trim for hash run. She is amazing to train and needs no time to recover…I will go in hard with training next time growing the stain. TY again FastBuds….🔥🔥🔥

@hannabis420, whatever you have been doing, looks great!🤩And like a manifold, brave on autos so hats off! 🎓 I might try it on next auto run🧐 I’m sure they will bush out the way u want. I look forward to ur updates. Been trimming mine today. I’ll put a couple of pics up. Not great ones! I’ll load some better ones next week. ✌️

oops lol only mainlined/manifolded twice (still not sure if I'm doing a mixture of both or what lol) my main goal is to get that hub because it really does make a bush out of the gals with lots of colas, looking forward to the updates and same to you😌😋

So you see a difference with larger pots 10 gal +? She looks great 👍
Mj42Organic
Mj42Organiccommented3 years ago
@Barrister_of_Bud, i 100% would recommend a 10g pot but more wide then deep. I find the roots will keep stretching out in search for them nutes. Certainly they will be as long as the plant is tall at a minimum, so I personally think the larger pot works better in organic living soil. Also the CMeth has massive side branches… as long as main cola and bigger pot really helped with training. 2nd (kinda 3rd) grow in this pot now! Combine notill methods & dry amending products with a 10g fabric pot….now results speak for themselves. Didn’t think Recycled ♻️ Soil would perform this well. Will not be throwing any out in back yard anymore 🔥💵🔥. P.s my lemon pie done in same pot didn’t do nearly as well! Only harvested 1.5oz dry. So sometimes we still mess up even with all the tools 🤣 Thanks for stopping by…✌️
