S03: Strawberry Banana Auto - FastBuds

Hi guys :D Welcome to S03 of Buds - Growing experience! Before the general info on this season, check out what happened that motivated me to grow a 7th plant (in soil!) in my small tent! From all 6 different seeds for this season, Zamnesia's Runtz took the longest to sprout. In fact, it took around 4-5 days which is still normal but every other bean sprouted in around 2, so I thought that something might be wrong with this one and decided to take another one and put it this time in RQS germination mini pot with soil. Well, 24h later the original Runtz sprouted in Rockwool and I didn't want to throw away the other seed so I decided to experiment a bit and put it into a RQS fabric pot and soil. So I bought the best soil I could find online from Canna - Terra Professional Plus and planted the seed. And now you might as yourself, why the hell does this diary say Strawberry Banana - FastBuds? Well, I've watered the pot with a lot of water for the first time and a day later I wanted to uncover a bit of soil to check out the bean aaaaaand it was gone :D I couldn't find it to the point that I went through all 20L of soil without any positive result. So it probably slided down the side of the pot with water and soil and is probably somewhere down below. SUCH A BEGINNER MOVE! That's why I decided to plant StrawNana directly into the soil and leave it the fuck alone this time! This season I'll cultivate a strain selection for a few contests and some sponsored grows BUT all of them were strains that I was most curious about and having 30 top strains to select from, it was hard to define the best concidering, flavour, taste, effect, THC amount and visual appeal. I'm very pleased to announce that Sweet Seeds and Zamnesia gave me the opportunity to partially sponsor this grow season by supplying me wiht their strains of my choice. For my hydro setup I'll be using the Green House Feeding Nutrient Starter Kit which I've got for participating in their contest. I still need to read into how much nutrients I'll need for this season since I'll run only automatic strains with the exception of Dark Phoenix which will be in the same reservoir as 2 other automatic strains. I'll also do something a bit different this time, because I'll also grow one strain in a RQS fabric pot and soil, which I never did before. For the first time I'll also be using the PLANT SUCCESS ORCA LIQUID MYCORRHIZAE after reading a lot of positive things about the fungi and the product. I've also learned a lot from my last grow season which ended in 2 plants dying off because of bacteria in my reservoirs and both res' were cleaned with hospital grade chemicals to remove 99.9% of all bacteria in both reservoirs before the start of this season. Let's hope for the best and I hope that I'll have a lot of fun doing it :) XOXO Cremo
