Growpotkin Let’s try this again! The last two seeds died thanks to mold, so am going again. I got these seeds from a contest win back in 2021 and they’ve been living in the fridge since then. Started them off in peat pellets and planted into soil. Hope we have better luck this time!

Growpotkin Forgot to update this week - one seed hasn’t made it, the other still going. Hey Growdiaries, why are all my photos uploading in a weird orientation?

Growpotkin What a nice week. Good growth and it had naturally split into two main colas - I’ll start LST very shortly. Thanks for stopping by!

Growpotkin Really pleased with the spontaneous branching. The stalks look really thick for this stage so I’m hoping this will be a good grow. Responding fine to LST this week. Thanks for stopping by!

Growpotkin Just a quick update during family time. Loving how well this has responded to LST and we’ve got (relatively) quick flowering. I guess the lesson is to stress my autos a bit less and stick with LST instead of FIMming. Keep growing everyone!

Growpotkin I’m hoping for a bit more of a stretch - it’s very compact at the minute. But loads of great strong bud sites, which is fabulous to see. Leaves look happy, so all good this week! Since taking the pictures I’ve trimmed quite a lot of leaves - may add some more pictures later if I’m feeling ambitious.

Growpotkin Right, lost my first try at uploading this week so let’s try this again.
It looks like this will stay a small plant but the buds look like they’ll be lovely and dense. Plant seems happy and we have baby trichromes, so I’m happy with progress. Thanks for stopping by!

Growpotkin Well, I have to confront the reality that the stretch hasn’t stretched very much! So this won’t be a big one. But the buds look dense and the plant looks happy, so there we are. Trichromes progressing nicely.

Growpotkin Nothing dramatic this week - buds are getting denser and trichromes too. Not much to report! Thanks Fastbuds for the contest win seeds.

Growpotkin Buds are getting dense and frosty. Calyxes are turning orange. We are getting there! Maybe three more weeks? Probably will start the flush in a week or so.
Thanks for coming by!

Growpotkin Had a hell of a time getting this to save! Not an eventful week otherwise. Ended up chopping a week after these pictures were taken.
I like Fastbuds in part because their strains are simple and easy to grow. I haven’t had absolutely epic success with them, but they grow fast and make perfectly decent bud. This strain was no different. Not a big producer but the buds were dense and tasty.
Growpotkin A nice quick harvest for a little plant. Man the stem was thick relative to the size of the plant. I’d hoped this would be an indicator of big bud growth but sadly not.
