Hi everyone!!
The guys and gals at 420 Fastbuds sent me over some of their limited edition photo periods to show you all.
I am extremely excited to see how these ladies turn out. Fastbuds have already conquered the auto world and now they have moved over to feminised photo periods with high yield flower times and I really can't wait to see how these ladies turn out!
I started with 5 beans in water set at 24 Celsius on the heat mat with the sensor directly on the cup. I covered a cup with tin foil to block out light.
After 24 hours all had tails and I moved them to 0.5 litre pots with ecothrive Coco/perlite 70/30. I have them all 35ml of water from the cup they were floating in. I use a syringe and slowly remove the plunger and just allow the water to fall on the pot in a circular motion moving towards the outside of the pot.
After 36 hours all the girls were above the soil. I buried the seeds about half an inch under the medium and this seems the right amount to allow easy germination and also deep enough to remove the seed shells. Great success!
I'll leave the girls in the propagator for the first 2-3 weeks. I've opened the vents now the girls are all above the soil but the propagator maintains a nice 80-85% humidity so it's easy for the girls.
I used photone on my phone to dial in at around 200 par. This will raise as the girls grow so I shouldnt need to adjust the lights for the coming weeks. 24 hours of light current schedule.
@Legendaryseedthumb, hey there! :) thank you so much! I've given them a long run this time but they have blossomed into some big girls hehe. Once I get the scrog in I hope for some fantastic results :)
@GrowthConsultant, just seen the comments about air hehe. Ya don't see in photos but I have major air movement. I have 4 osculating fans on each corner. I also have a 8 inch outtake and 6 inch in. This is actually overkill for a 4x4 tent but I prefer to air on caution when dealing with humidity and mold risks.
@GrowthConsultant, thank you! :) I worry they are coming across as small lol. But with the training methods and massive pots a long veg is necessary and will result in massive girls in coming weeks hehe.
