Day 15 - Removed first set of side shoots as from the little experience I have growing FastBuds autoflower genetics, the first pair of side shoots always remain on the smaller side. No complaints there! Their genetics have been in my first grow and in every other grow after that. Still got some other beans from them for the future as well! 🙂
She has settled in her new home. Growth has increased. Seeded planter with chia seeds to try grow a cover crop. Till now nothing sprouted.
Day 17 - First training session done on this lady. Bent main stem downwards to expose side shoots to more light. Removed 2 leaves because one was on the soil and the other was covering side growth. Chia seeds have started to sprout! Misted soil to encourage more chia seeds to hopefully sprout.
Day 19 - Side shoots are all pointing upwards to the light. Only one is on the "wrong side" and will have to train it outwards when it's more developed. Main growth tip already pointing upwards as well. Thinking of topping her but not 100% convinced yet. Will let her develop a bit further before I take a decision. Chia cover crop coming in nicely.
Day 20 - Gave first feeding to this lady. 1 litre of water with 0.5ml of BioBizz FishMix. Removed any leaves that were covering growth tips to try and maximise light penetration.
