June 28th Day 1: 7am got home from work it was a beautiful morning, found this Tangie seedling 🌱 poking her head up. RIP to the 4 I killed before her May she’s she be strong, smelly and prosperous!!
We have a 4 pot Autopot system installed, 1” washed clay pebbles in the bottom, canna coco/perlite @5:1. Although I’m using canna coco im starting them in soil as I’ve been having some major issues. So far I’ve lost 8 beans. Never using paper towel again and I used to swear by it✌️🏻
_____________________________
July 2nd Day 5: Ok so we’re having some problems with the 1st potting mix. I struggled so much to start seeds over the last few weeks. I went back to my old “roots” this lady was germinated in a cup of water for a day then straight into the soil. Im running coco now, and intend on transplanting the soil seedling into coco, using PH 6.3 water/feed till the soil is spent.
_____________________________
July 3rd Day 6: Marks on leaves... I mixed canna soil & coco @ 80/20 and have been spraying with a very light 250EC PH6.3 Calmag+, Rhizo solution. Light is 450w Viparspectra it was at 18” now at 24”
My guess is a Calcium issue.
Please feel free to comment your opinions?✌️🏻
July 5th Day 8 - 💧just moistened the soil around the base with 250ml
She was transplanted 2 days ago and has since grown. I’m expecting a little slow growth till she fills the pot. I could be pissed because of the difficulties germinating her I’m just happy shes alive (marks on leaves most likely from soil/coco mix before I transplanted her).✌️🏻
_____________________________
July 7th Day 10 - slow development. Sprayed rhizotonic at 1ml/l RO water PH 6
_____________________________
July 8th Day 11: 💧fed 1L nutrients per pot at the above ratios 940EC
Watered at the edges of the pot to encourage root growth. I will again wait until the pot feels lighter
_____________________________
July 10th Day 13: after being egged on to do it I mutilated the poor infant under MUDBUGS advice. She was already suffering transplant shock. But hey WTF got more seeds going in if things don’t turn around soon✌️🏻
16th July Day 19 - For the tangie things are looking promising (she is staying alive) all the other girls are also picking back up after the transplant. Things should start to speed up now✌️🏻
_______________________
17th July Day 20 - 💧Fed above program 1.5L each pot around the edges to promote root growth as suggested by Jon_Do
_______________________
18th July Day 21 - 6am Tangie is ahead of the rest of the FastBuds lady’s, all plants look like they are recovering from transplant. they’re all praying 🙏🏻
July 19th Day 22 - 💧Fed above nutrient program 1L per plant. Things are ramping up but unfortunatley I’m behind by 2 weeks due to poor transplant. Preflowers showing but I won’t count flower till she’s producing
_______________________
July 20th Day 23 - Since sleeping and now going to work I won’t have time to check on my girls till I get home at 10pm... last went in there at 8am this morning that’s 14 hours (12 hours of light) last measured 7” widest. Often a nice surprise right?!🙏🏻
&&&&&&&
Updated the picture from today, nice growth but she is showing her preflowers, will start LST this week✌️🏻
_______________________
July 25th Day 28 -💧1L fed each pot no run off. After next feed turning on the autopots. That way i can fill the res and set turn it all on
So I did some looking, and based off your 600 ppm I'm seeing 9.7 tsp of A and B per 15L of water and 8.4 of the rhizo, its showing an EC of 1.1-1.9. I hope that helps. Also you mention her being short, could she maybe be needing some more dark hours? Maybe a 20/4 instead of the 22? I had 1 of my plants get very angry and show the signs of her exposure to high light hours, but that could just be that plant.
💚 keep it up, I'm sure she'll shoot up anytime soon.
July 27th Day 30 - 💧Fed 1L If above program 5.8EC last top feed before turn on auto pots.
_______________________
July 28th Day 31 - 💧10pm mixed up 20L in the res. Turned on autopots filled up the trays made sure everything was working. Turned off the supply of water.
———
1am noticeable decrease in water in the trays..
August 2nd Day 36 - Officially into week 6 counting as flower I see preflowers popping out everywhere. Praying she will continue to grow upwards. She’s under mix of LED and HPS. The HPS is on 250w for 6hrs in the middle of the day cycle. During this period the temp peaks at 30c
_______________________
August 5th Day 38 -💧changed res mix to above plan. EC came to 1.89 added a few Litres of tap water to bring the EC down to 1.6
_______________________
August 8th Day 41 -💧changed res mix, added 30L
Same as above plan except
Coco a&b 2ml/L
Boost 0.5ml/L
Kept EC at 1.7
PH5.8
_______________________
August 9th Day 42 - Last day of week 6 stretch stopping now. She’s got a nice Sativa shape ✌️🏻
10th August Day 43 - 💧 sailing into week 7 she was 50cm+ when I measured last. She’s looking healthy. So far so good with the autopots! Not enough room, or too many plants... you choose😂
25th August Day 58 - 💧yellowing all over and slow bud development. I added some PK13/14 but that made things worse. Had some issues with Autopot system. First TDS died then found some sludge in the res. Wasted 80L of nutrient mix. CANNA PK13/14 raises the EC like crazy at 0.1ml/l it increased EC by 1000! Not using it again.
— started with 20L in res
Liquid Oxy: 40ml
Calmag Agent: 20ml
Coco A&B: 50ml
Canna BOOST: 20ml
EC @ 1.8
PH 5.8
1st September Day 65 - 💧into the 3rd month of growth, this past week we’ve battled a Cyanobacteria infection with some beneficial bacteria. I used HEISINBERG recipe to ...
-
The tea recipe is:
2.5L Deionised tesco value water.
TNC bactorrS13 - 0.5g
TNC trichorrP5 - 0.5g
EWC - small handful
Molasses/Boost/Carbs - 1tsp
👇🏻
Brewed with an airstone in the bottle. I used some tights to filter the tea after it had been bubbled for 24hrs+ then APPLY 250ml/1gal water.

Plan on top feeding Terpinator & Boost at 2ml/L
7th Sept Day 71 - took her of the res, will be hand feeding everything to the tray. IN FUTURE only minerals no sugars or addatives in the res anymore. ANY carbs or additives will go in the trays.👍🏼
____________________________
11th September Day 75 - Nearing the end with this girl, she looks and smells beautiful.
Had a range of different issues with the Autopot system. I have 3 plants left hooked up.
Overall happy with how everything turned out considering the F’ups along the way. I never dreamed of her growing to the size she did and finishing in a reasonable time frame. If everything had gone right I’d expect her to be slightly more of a producer and more ripe at this stage. But to get some tasty Tangie buds off her is GREAT! I’ll be back for the cured shots👊🏻
Hey bro what do you think about a darkness period of 24+hrs before flipping, especially for 24 hr light gals like mine were? Read it a lot in my research but no proof of anything
@LumberjackBuds, you can do it but ya want the dark to be at least 12h during the 24 hr circadian rhythm. Personally I would let her have 16h dark to move 4 hours.
@PharmaZ, I ended up skipping it, I’ll try my other plants tho and compare it next shift of plants. Thanks. One last thing, I realized I should maybe have 12 hours of lights on during the not hot as shit part of the day. How do I correctly switch my program from 4 PM on and 4 am off, to something 4 hours ahead with 8 to 8. I know This is assuming I don’t have light leaks of course but I think it’s ok since it’s sealed for co2 and I hung out in there looking for dayspots and saw nothing.
Do I just gradually move the turn on or turn off time by like an hour each day so it’s not drastic? I’m assuming it’s not life or death because currently that plan will only take 4 days to get me on track but I just wanna know how to do things best/most efficiently
@Tazard, Thanks Tazard looking better for sure. She’s started showing ore flowers now so the race for serious growth is on otherwise ok have a midgit for sure haha, thank for stopping in
@OutForRealbeanCarib,edit: sorry... thanks for following... I’m not giving up just not wasting time posting pics if I end up removing them. They’ve actually all bounced back now and are finally growing. Just not uploading pics yet. Still trying to dial it all in. Aparantly I shouldn’t have washed the canna coco pre planting...
Liked and followed! Looking good, I can already taste it =)
Not sure if thats already what you meant, but when theyre young try doing a ring further out, like 3" outside of the base; lets the crown breathe and forces roots to stretch. I thought it was like a perfectionist thing but it works like hell.
Also I found out that roots like lightly moist medium way better than soaking. I'm always paranoid to try to make sure my plants -- especially autos -- do their early rooting optimally, YMMV =)
@PharmaZ, Those leaves are doing nothing for your plant but slowing her down at this age it will help her if u just cut em and those leaves has nothing to do with photosynthesis that is your fuel for your first set of true leaves after those come out those leaves are useless those are only slowing her down because all her energy is focused on fixxing those dead leaves there done they will not help your plant at all👍👍✌️✌️🍻🍻
@MUDBUG, cut what off bro the sick leaves? I don’t think I could cut anything off she’s so small needs it all for photosynthesis IMO if she was growing rapidly I sure would have cut them off already.😂👍🏼
