I’m Not using any nutrients besides what is already in the soil for the first couple weeks. I’m using Foxfarm Happy Frog soil. Only using a spray bottle to water currently, to keep the soil moist.
Going into the second week. Things are looking good to me. I did add one more seed of Cosmic Bomb since I had one that didn’t germinate. Now I have all 6 pots going. Lastly I think I’m gonna introduce some fox farm Big Bloom starting this week at quarter or half dose.
It’s the start of week three. Forbidden Runtz and the Cosmic Bomb are doing the best out of the group. The cali Snow isn’t far behind. I plan on flowering the Jupiter OG once the auto’s done since it’s the only photoperiod out of the bunch.
The ladies seem to be getting bigger every day. The Forbidden Runtz from FastBuds is definitely the best in the group Imo. I'll be getting some more of them in the future for sure! With the two Cosmic Bombs girls right behind. I added some Cal-Mag to the menu going into this week. I also started some LST and tried topping a few of them. I've read a ton of mixed reviews on topping Autos, so I figured I would give it a shot and make my own comparison. The three I topped seem to be doing good. All three had some nice wide growth while the top quickly heals.

Week 5 and they all look good. I’ve been feeding twice a week and alternating with watering. I did notice some yellow tips so I raised my light some. Hopefully it helps.
The LST I I did in the early weeks looks like it’s really gonna pay off. I put the California snow on a stool to raise it up to the same level as the rest of the plants.
They are all getting closer. Trichomes are still clear. Some of them are starting to get cloudy. The cosmic bomb buds look nice. They are fattening up really nice
The California Snow is a little behind the other ladies but not by much. It’s finally starting to fill out and plump up. The forbidden Runtz looks great too. It smells like straight gas.
I really like the fast Buds and the Bomb seeds. I’ll definitely have to try more from those breeders. But with so many choices it’s hard to narrow it down to a few when I make my next order.
Hey there again!
Thanks so much for running a diary for our genetics. Let me know if you need any assistance, we would more than happy to help
Happy Growing
@fast_buds_jessie, Does Fast_buds own this site? Doesn't matter to me I was just curious and took a guess. Keep up the good work as autos are pretty childproof to grow and newer growers are lees likely to fail and become discouraged. I have seen some really nice flowers from fast buds..alot of work goes into breeding and getting things right and again thanks for the hard work. Just love to see people get that grow bug and continue it forever😀. I personally have never grown autos. I do have friends that have and they continue to grow since. If ya want to check out my latest diary Smarties stop by lemme know what ya think. Take it easy and happy growing.
@fast_buds_jessie, thanks for reaching out. I’ll definitely reach out if I have any questions. I can’t wait to try some more strains in the future. Thanks again!!
@gnome, Sorry about the late reply. I am very happy with my Szhlux. I actually bought another one, the PT5000. It’s the 500 watt model and I’ve checked it’s output with a meter and it does put out the 500 watts. I’ve also checked the output with a par meter and it puts out good numbers. The timer function is a nice feature to have too. Over all I am really happy with the lights. If your looking for a good budget light these are a good choice. Both of mine are still working great going on a year.
@gnome,sorry I’ve been busy and haven’t been on in a while.
As for the szhlux. I couldn’t be happier. I got the one with timer function and it works great!! I really like how it will turn off a couple of the light bars of the temperature gets to high. It pulls a true 400 watts from the wall. The light output works well in my 4x4. For the price it is a steal. I love it. I’m probably gonna pick up a bigger model soon! Hope this helps.
