Here we grow again folks, I have dropped two 420 fastbud C4 autos seeds in a 24 hour bath of a water/peroxide mix before they go into a rapid rooter where they will spend a few days before going straight into their 3 gallon pots of living soil fed with Earth Dust also from Dan and his team at The Green Sunshine Co 🌞 great group of people 👍😀 (I have literally received a return email from them in under an hour).... Dan seems to be a bit of a 🤓 nerd (sorry Dan) but I like that in a equipment designer, nutrient builder n supplier I've been growing with their nutrients for around a year now and it's spot on, another reason I'm excited about my newly purchased lights (Electric Sky 300 V3) 330w of perfectly tuned spectrum light 😀
I want to note I do not have the es300 v3 lights yet they were ordered a little more than a week ago and should be here for flower. 🤞🤞 I've been in love with these lights since I saw them probably a year n a half ago and The Green Sunshine Co has a good sale going on so I finally bought myself two of them. 🤤😁
Thank you Growdiaries for this great place to share our grows...

9/13 quick update
I dropped the beans in a couple rapid rooters where they will live until I see roots then into their 3 gallon pots rooters and all
Into the tent they go 🙀
Germination went good, on 9/12 I soaked the seeds in a water/peroxide mix for 24 hours then into the the rapid rooters had roots coming out the bottom on 9/15 so they went into their 3 gallon pots of living soil made possible by earth dust dry organic amendments that have been cooked into some used soil from previous grows.

The C4 are the two in the middle they are developing nicely 👌 we all know there's not much excitement in the second week, until today I received my two ES300 v3 lights and installed them this morning. I'm not taking off the spider farmer lights because they were used to get em started but they obviously won't be used for this grow anymore. You can definitely see the difference in light color there is a lot more red in the electric sky lights. I wish I knew how to change the filter settings on my tablet but I don't so I apologize for the poor quality pictures and want to say the lights are not as red as in this picture 😅

Hi again, saw some good growth this week looks like #2 is going to be a little smaller than #1 but they both look great 👍 I want to apologize for the picture quality my tablet doesn't have a flash I'll work on something... thank you all for coming out please click the like button 👇
Till next week
Cyrus
Hello everyone, the c4 went through the ringer this week 😆 I topped them I believe Tuesday and started some lst and did a little defoliation just enough that all the bottom branches are in the light 😀 I think it's #1 (left taller one) that has covered itself in pistils already and seems to be stretching already. These plants have to be watched or they'll get ahead of you. They got a little sad after I pushed them around and tied them down but I'm sure they will snap right back.

Kind of a busy week with these two (two middle) they're growing pretty fast I fim both got a little crooked on one not sure how bad yet but still got four tops on it. The one on the left did a stretch as soon as I topped it so I supercropped it to keep it under control. These crazy plants have a mind of their own lol I'm seeing some nice buttons (I call hedgehogs) forming on them so I'll top dress them today or tomorrow with a little Earth Dust Boost which is the only feeding they will get. That it again till next time
Cyrus
please 👇 like 👍
Fastbuds is definitely living up to their name on these c4 they are in a hurry 4 sure. I obviously have two phenotype here #1 has some pretty color already #2 has some lite shades on the leaves but nothing like the other one. I've just been trying to keep them spread out as much as the space allows and defoliation consists of strategically removing larger fan leaves to uncover as many of the lower buds. I did top dress them six days ago which is the only food they will get except a possible tea if I think they need it later on. The es300 have been lowered to 25" and I've increased the power from about 7 to 9 and will keep going until they say stop.
You know the routine please like 👇 this and thank you so much for your stopping by, we'll do this again next week
Cyrus
C4 are coming along nicely with the new es300 set at about a 8 no sign of burn or plant fatigue I'm pretty impressed by how cool these lights run. The girls are getting a little dusting of frost on them and starting to get a little pine stink going.
I again thank you for coming by and visiting please remember to click like 👇
See you again in a week
🌲 👍 grow forward my good neighbors
Cyrus
This week went smooth nothing exciting to share, I continue to take off a handful of leaves every couple days and they just get water no testing necessary because of the living microbes they adjust the ph to the plants needs and Earth Dust is what makes my life easier. I don't know why #2 is not doing as well as the other one but the buds are probably 1/3 the size, they are starting to get a little more color 🤔
Till we meet again, happy growing
Cyrus
Things are still going along smoothly for one of these c4 the other is acting like it was pollinated or something. I stripped the leaves off and looked it over for anything that would cause this and I can only blame it's genetics, it happens. The other c4 is beautiful and growing perfectly and it won't be to much longer for both to be finished I'm guessing a couple three weeks
See you next week
Cyrus
Hello everyone, these little ladies are just about ready 😉 so I stripped them down to see if I could get a little more out of them I like doing this right before I chop them because along with the insect frass I think it tricks them into thinking they are under attack and it seems to trigger their defense adding a good amount of additional trichomes and a final bit of fatt. Just have to watch for bananas 🍌 it triggers the desperate last chance for babies reaction to but this late I don't care about bananas except when they are in with younger plants
Should be ready to come down next week if not sooner
Thanks again for stopping in
Cyrus 🌲 👀 🌲 grow on!!!
Very pretty color easy to grow and I have already recommend this strain to others. The only training I did on the c4 is topping it and minimal pushing and pulling of the branches just to get them to grow out from under one another
Such a pretty plant fast growing and even a faster developing flower into solid buds. The Green Sunshine Co makes growing easy with Earth Dust it's an all organic living soil program that makes it a water only grow, put this together with the great genetics of Fastbuds and life is good you just keep water on them with minimal effort on training because Fastbuds has taken the time to get these great phenotype with good node spacing and branching out to a great shape.
@Sr_Verde I added a picture here and the Cinderella Jack are in it, they will probably be ✂️ cut this weekend. I thought you might want to see how they came out.
Later 😁
Cyrus
You must be my neighbour! Ur humidity and temps are so similar to my own, I had to look twice… 👀 Where do you live if you don’t mind me asking? Canadian? 🇨🇦?
Thank you @Momgrowsthechronic, weather is definitely different 😆 we only get snow here one day a year most years anyway. I would love to live where things actually turn green in the summer and white in the winter. I do like the fact that I can ride my Harley probably 300 days a year and the 65 days we can't are not all together it's more like a few days here and a few there. We have a very long growing season I grew out in the woods for most of my life but my health turned on me and I'm forced to grow at home and being in a neighborhood I stay inside. It keeps people honest... thank you again for coming by to visit, enjoy and grow on 👍🌲
Cyrus
@Cyrusdavirus, wow… totally different from here. It’s getting cold here now and before long it will be snow for the next 4-5 months. You must enjoy the weather there immensely and outdoor grow conditions are probably great too. Jealous… but I love Ontario, Canada. We have easy access to lots of lakes, forests and a vibrant city life too if that’s what you’re into. Growing weed indoors is becoming much more popular here though because of our long winters and unpredictable summers. And a site like Grow Diaries makes it possible for peeps like us from different parts of the world to connect, learn and make new friends. Enjoy the warm weather and keep in touch… ur plants look great too!
Thanks @DevilsBud, this is the 3rd run of autos I've done so I don't have a lot of experience with autos either but I will say these are developing pretty fast one tried to grow a little crazy and I had to supercrop it to keep it in line but it didn't seem to bother it much and one is staying a little small but only time will tell
Thank you @sailormoonflowers, I've never had one act like this one, I would blame the fact that it's a new light and I'm trying to figure it out except the other three didn't go crazy yet anyways 😅
