Bucket_Buds The soil plugs are great, no hassle just stuff the seed in and spray with some water occasionally. We did leave her in the "nursery" a bit to long as you can see in the first post of the next week!

Bucket_Buds Added 42.0 (nice) grams of Easy Boost from Royal Queen Seeds to roughly 14 liters of soil, should be plenty to keep this autoflower nice and happy for the entire grow! Gonna use the Easy Plus and Easy Combo in the coming weeks! Left her unattended for a bit before planting in soil which is why she looks a bit odd in the first pictures, she definitely recovered though! One 6000K LED running at 50w, gonna switch to two 6000K LEDs running at 35w each next week!

Bucket_Buds She is growing but her node spacing is really tight, great for growing in a bucket but no space to really LST this way. Decided to FIM instead of lst on June 11th, lets see how she recovers! Watering: June 8: 0.4L pH 6.2 June 11: 0.75L pH 6.25 Nutrients per 5L: Half a RQS Boost tablet One easy plus tablet (arrived as a powder but that doesn't really matter)

Bucket_Buds She recovered so fast you would not believe! She is a real bush now, I like how the FIM experiment turned out, she is definitely growing more horizontal than my previous plant. Watering: June 14: 1L pH 6.15 June 18: 1.75L pH 6.30 Nutrients per 5L: Half a RQS Boost tablet One easy plus tablet (arrived as a powder but that doesn't really matter)

Watering: June 22: 3L pH 6.2 June 26: 3L pH 6.1 - Starting with bloom boost from now on Nutrients per 5L (new batch with bloom): 1 Easy plus 1 Bloom booster

Bucket_Buds She looks really pretty even though her purples are not as pronounced, with purple queen its 50/50 if they go purple or not. Guess that even though we forced some purples out of it ours was one of the not so purple genetics!

@Bucket_Buds, Yeah, I was also looking at those types of trashcans before I finally said f*ck it and just got a tent instead. Smart trick with the interlocking trashcans. Way to go!

@love_2_grow, Yeah! We first had a bucket made of 4 normal black buckets, which gave it a bit of a unique hourglass shape. Now we are rocking 2 90l trashcans stacked on top of each other! By taping/gluing the outer rime of the lid to the top bucket they even lock onto each other!

@Bucket_Buds, Sweet! Are you growing in a space bucket? I almost went the bucket route myself but could never find any buckets that I was really happy with so eventually just bought a tent :D
