FastBuds Californian Snow is an autoflowering hybrid with a life cycle of 63-80 days and grows to a medium height. I will be topping this plant, in addition to using some LST and doing some defoliation as needed. She will be started under LED lights and moved to HPS when she starts flowering. The setup for this grow will be:
Veg Tent - 3'x3'x6'
Flower Tent - 4'x4'x6.75'
6 in 440 CFM fan and filter
3 gallon fabric pot
Pro-Mix HP + 20% extra perlite for aeration and drainage
Veg lights - 2 x Viparspectra PAR450 - 200W actual ea
Flower lights - 600 watt Eye Hortilux Super HPS in aircooled fixture
GH Flora series nutrients with GH Supplements,Terpinator & Hydroguard
11/20 - Seed placed in moist Root Riot plug.
11/24 - Sprout above ground
11/25 - Day 1, just some tap water pH to 5.8.
11/30 - Day 6, fed 190 ppm Clonex solution pH set to 5.8, moved to 3x3 LED tent.
@Lady_NugWitch,I think you kind of have to gauge it by how well the plant started out. I typically struggle with low humidity and vigor in the early stages. So I judge accordingly, and not always the best..lol
@@Fingers,
Dude, that is some crazy looking bud, I think I could smell it through the screen........... well done. Enjoying your grows, mad skillz, keep it realz.

@Reaper, thanks Reaper. I definitely would get some. I have 6 more left in my pack. It was a Gold Rush 5+3 pack. Be sure to check out the other one i have growing. Much shorter, because she was under LED for the stretch, but all buds!
@LockDownGrow, I think nutrient regime, container size and environment all play a role in this. I've read that giving veg nutes until the stretch is over, delays flowering, as does training like defoliation, topping, and HST. Ive also read that the typical 8-9 week estimate is based on giving bloom nutes from the 3rd week, under HID lighting. Who knows for sure. But I do give veg nutes until stretch stops, and I grow under LED for veg, and HID for flower.
Looking awesome, brother! Really nice bright green color to it -- looks really healthy! I'm curious to see how this strain does, its one of the newer ones from @FastBuds, I think?? Looking awesome from here! ๐ช
