Welcome to Growdiaries Grow 17/18.
I have been sorting out another space over the last few weeks so I can start another grow while I'm waiting for grow 16 to finish.
I have butchered my secret jardin ds60 so it can fit it into my grow room.
My next 2 grows are going to be combined into one grow for the most part until the main tent is free then I'll be splitting the plants into 2 tents.
Growdiaries Grow 17 is going to consist of 3 fastbuds photoperiod testers. I haven't much information on these so I'm running them a bit blind. A big thanks to Heather from @Fast_Buds.
This grow is going to consist of.
#1 FBPHP12
#2 FBPHP13 (unfortunately didn't make it)
#3 FBPHP14
This diary is going to focus on.
#1 FBPHP12
Germination.
Wednesday 15/3/23
The 2nd tent is about ready so today's the day to start germination on the Fastbuds testers. Also the Zamnesia seeds arrived today which is why I'm starting that grow early.
5.30pm
Start soaking seeds.

Added humidifier.
Sunday 19/3/23

#1 Above ground shell still just on.
Because 5/6 are above ground I'm classing this as day 0 and germination is complete.
#2 FBPHP13 didn't make it and I tried another seed which also didn't make it so I'm going to try the last seed on my next grow. So I won't be running a diary on this tester until the end of August if I can get the last seed to germinate.
As I'm running quite a few diaries at the moment updates may not be as regular as I'd like but I do document everything so all my notes are relevant to the time period.
Back soon.
Thanks for stopping by.
Hell yeah thats dope. Mine got taken out by catapillers or a weird snow storm that come through. Same with the budrot the year before. Hopefully a greenhouse will make a little difference. @Hashy,
@Chubbs, mine are done out in the wild Gorilla style. Last year's was a year of slugs eating everything in sight. Year before last was the year of bud rot, weather turned to quickly and destroyed my crop.
