FastBuds AMNESIA ZKITTLEZ

~ FASTBUDS TESTER #2205 ~ Well friends, here we go on another 'canna-venture' together! The grow room has had a complete remodel and some upgrades done to it including brand spanking new 4x8 and 4x4 tents and a Trolmaster Hydro X controller along with a new Control Panel. This tester strain is one of six tester strains that FastBuds has graciously provided me with and I'm looking forward to seeing what this girl has to offer when she's grown to her full potential! One drawback of 'testers' is I have little to no information on it other than its number and that it's an autoflower... 🤪 But, it's ALWAYS a blast growing them for me because not knowing a lot allows me to just concentrate on the essentials: Light, Environment, Water, Nutrients and possibly a bit of LST... not complicated, just basics like keeping a constant temperature and RH in the tent at a level that gives a good VPD, watering when almost dry and maintaining proper light levels according to their stage of growth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~Initially seeds were lightly scuffed, then soaked for 3 hours in 78℉ distilled water after which they were transferred to moist paper towels laid out in a Jiffy Pellet plastic starter tray with lid. Underneath the tray was placed a Mars Hydro Heat Mat with Controller that was set to 78℉ where they stayed until their tap roots emerged. ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 7.0 ph. ~Once roots emerge from the Jiffy Pellet they're transferred to their fabric pots. ~Grown 100% organic in a 4g Gronest fabric pot and a 3g fabric pot by Wraxly filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium and initially amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 / Earthworm Castings / Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4 and Coast of Maine Stonington Blend Organic Plant Food 5-2-4. ~19/5 light cycle for the entire run with supplemental UVA added during flower. Lights are controlled by a Trolmaster Hydro X controller set for a 15min Sunrise/Sunset simulation. ~Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 12/22- Week 3 of veg for the #2205 Testers from FastBuds and it won't be long before these girls begin their transition into flower. They were watered yesterday with 0.25g of de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Fish Head Farms Fish Sh!t Soil Conditioner added, then ph'd to 6.4 @ 71℉. Today their medium was still moist and they felt heavy when lifted, so all I did today was fill the humidifier to maintain 55-60% RH in the tent. I went ahead and topped the #1 tester and LST'd her, bending her over and holding her down with a short piece of coated horticulture wire. I also removed the on large shade leaf that would have been blocking the light from all the lower branching that was just exposed by the LST. The #2 that I already topped is doing fantastic, albeit not as big as her sis, and I expect her to take off here soon. I also LST'd her just like the #1, bending her over and holding her down with a short piece of coated horticulture wire. I also removed the one large shade leaf that would have been blocking the light from all the lower branching that was just exposed by the LST on her as well. 12/24- I watered both testers today with 0.5g of straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.4 @ 73℉. It's been a couple days since they were topped and they have new shoots sprouting out nicely! They both have got a healthy green color to them and they remain extremely vigorous! The tent environment remains pretty much ideal with daytime temp's a constant 74℉ and the RH running at 55-60% giving a VPD in the 0.99 - 1.05. I also have the HLG 650R turned up to 50% power now which is roughly 330w at the wall and have it still at 36" above canopy which they're tolerating exceptionally! 12/26- Yesterday was a 'dry day' but when I checked today their pots were lite, so I watered them both with 0.5g each of de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Fish Head Farms Fish Sh!t Soil Conditioner added, then ph'd to 6.4 @ 71℉ which I administered through their dip pans to maintain moisture in the lower third of their pots to get those roots expanding.... Remember BIG roots = BIG plants! 😁💚 They are beginning to start some explosive growth now and I'm anxious to see them take off! 🤩💚 They are both responding very well to the LST on them, not showing any signs of undue stress from it whatsoever! 12/28- I didn't water yesterday and only gave a 'lite' watering to the #1 tester in the 4g pot today as she was still fairly heavy. I just watered enough to moisten the top layer of the medium. The #2 tester in the 3g pot was definitely lite so she was thoroughly watered with 0.5g. of de-chlorinated water to which I added: 1.2ml/g of Dutch Pro Silica and 3.8ml/g of Dutch Pro Root Enhancer which was then ph'd to 6.0 @ 74℉. After watering I turned their pots 1/4 turn and did some canopy maintenance, tucking shade leaves that were blocking new growth and gently bending some branches to keep them opened up to the light. They are both a beautiful healthy, dark green and have responded super well to topping. They both have numerous side branching that are spreading out nicely! 💚 Well there's three weeks of vegetation and four weeks since sprouting behind us now! Week Four of veg will be exciting with the accelerated growth rate they're having and I'll be expecting them to begin their transition into flower to start to commence! 😍💚 😎💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow Strong! 💪😎🤙
