2nd Grow - FastBuds Gir Scout Cookies

@TreeTent310, I'll be watching!😎

@Quexos totally agree with everything you said bro especially the timing for running both I think you’re spot on that I should start autos a couple weeks the start photos in order to have autos finish in time for light switch for the photos. Worst case scenario the autos get 12/12 for a couple weeks which I don’t think is ideal but I don’t think it’ll fuck them up too bad either. Hopefully I can avoid having to find out lol. Stay tuned my friend I’ll have them up and running next week may not have any good pictures then but seeds will definitely be in the ground next week!!

@TreeTent310, Yeah, you are like me. I have my grows lined up a few down the road. It takes so long to go through a grow cycle, you get bored. Google Calendar! I looked up that Black Jack strain. I really want to see that one grow! Some of the grow pictures show really blue/purple buds! This would be perfect for a winter grow when your grow room is in the high 60s. I've only grown the 1 auto. I am going to have to grow a few more before I make any real judgments. I really liked some of the Seedsman autos. (Onyx, Sour Diesel Haze) So far I like growing photos because I have so much more control. I don't know about growing the two together. I'd have to put that on a calendar to see how it would work. I suppose you would start the auto, then start the photo when the auto is in mid flower. Otherwise you will have this really long veg period.

@Quexos, if I am honest I do kind of miss it! My doctor's rec just expired this month and I am considering renewing just in case I want to go I will still have the option! I am with you it is so surreal to go in there and pickup all sorts of goodies. It took me a good year or so of going for it to feel "normal". BUT they raised prices/taxes beginning of this year (legalization) and for the amount I smoke was getting hard to justify the budget to the wife haha. That was actually what started on me on the road to growing. I looked into it and figured i could produce enough for myself if I tried. My first run ended up with about 10 ounces that I am still working my way through now. I even gave some to friends/family as well. I agree though having only 3 strains to choose from can get stale/boring. Variety is the spice of life as they say!!

@TreeTent310 I still go to the dispensaries. I like to have a lot of variety. Once I've completed a few more grows, I should be more self-sustainable. I also like going to dispensaries because it's like a bucket list thing. I'm an old guy. The idea that I can walk into a store and buy nice bud is like a dream come true! The first few times I bought herb in Colorado, I was so paranoid. I thought for sure I was going to jail.

@Quexos, that’s the plan! Honestly I don’t plan on going to dispensary ever again if I can help it just have to keep growing and harvesting!

@ChefGreenThumbGardenofWeedin, I do think it helps for the curing to not totally fill your jars for sure! I usually do about 1/2-2/3 full for the curing, mainly just to avoid any potential for bud rot by over filling them or having them too tightly packed while they’re still moist. Once these are truly cured (probably end of this week) I’ll put them in one full jar for each plant with a Boveda pack to keep them fresh. I’d say 2/3 full is a good benchmark and like the absolute max I would fill during curing at least.

Thanks @@JackSpliff definitely some frosty and stanky buds off these two I’m pretty pleased with the outcome! Pics don’t do them justice!!

@Sgtoso, thanks stay tuned I should have harvest results in the next few weeks. So far I have to say I’d definitely recommend FastBuds they’ve been a breeze even in less than perfect conditions (heatwave). Have had really easy time with this grow all things considered. Just hoping I get couple O’s per plant and I’ll be completely sold!

@Quexos, thank my friend! They’re coming along quite nicely at this point! Still a few weeks yet though but they seem like they’re on the right track and a good pace so I’m excited to see what the next couple weeks will bring!

@B4niTa, thanks a lot! Just checked your grow out looking great. Hope mine are similar in a few weeks time! Your LST work seems to have done its job well. Now you just get to sit back and watch your work pay off with some fatty buds!!

@Fast_Buds, thanks guys really looking forward to seeing how this grow turns out. I’ve seen many others singing your praises so excited to try some out for myself! Thanks FastBuds!!
