Sour_D Day 15 - I love the Fastbuds genetics! πŸ’ͺ Day 16 - Watered her with de-chlorinated tap water with 2tsp Grow Big per gallon, ph'd to 6.53 Day 17 - She's a compact one Day 18 - Tucked in a few leaves to get some light to the branches below Day 19 - She's still too small for LST but really bushy so I defoliated a few leaves. I normally don't start this early but she has more foliage on her than normal and it was severely blocking light form the lower tops Day 20 - The defol yesterday didn't seem to bother her 😎 Day 21 - Watered her with de-chlorinated tap water with .5tsp Sensi Calmag Xtra and .5ml Mammoth P per gallon, ph'd to 6.52

Here's another winner from Fastbuds. Sticky dense sweet buds, although small, sure do pack a nice punch.

Sour_D It was a pretty easy trim for me and a buddy, only around 2 hours. She may be on the small side, but judging by the stickiness factor she is going to be a strong one. Nice sweet smell too. I can't wait for her to dry and cure a bit so I can dive right in 😎

I will be following this as a guide for my first indoor. How much water did you use (specially during the first weeks) ? Thanks in advance
Sour_D
Sour_D commented2y ago
For autos I start with some water in the center where the seed will be planted, around 500ml. A few days after she's above ground I hit the outer edge with another 500ml bottle of water to coax root growth. A couple days later, repeat the outer edge with 2 bottles at 500ml each. Then after 1 week full watering begins. It's a routine that seems to work well for me πŸ‘Š

How often should I water?
Sour_D
Sour_D commented2y ago
That depends on a lot of things I guess. If using soil, water only when the soil starts to dry out. Never let it get completely dry. Cannabis grown in soil likes a wet/dry cycle. If it's always wet, they'll be prone to root rot and other issues. I have a $15 analog moisture meter that goes from 1-10. When it reads below 5, I water. πŸ‘Š
the end.
