Fastbuds Grow

@Ashbash,I soak mine then remove any excess after 5 mins , test the ph and EC it might be a little high

@BigDaddyK, Hey, thanks for the input. Not sure about runoff pH, my batteries died on my pH reader cos I left it on and need calibration powder. I was adjusting to 6.5 going in and the soil is 6.5, but I'll get it working again to test and grab an ec meter too. Never tested that before. Now regarding runoff, I water until it starts coming out the bottom which is usually 2 litres or so every 2 days. But within 10 mins it's all sucked back up into the soil. Do I need to water more until it stays in the runoff tray?

@Ashbash, Yeah, you got it right 😊

@Fast_Buds, No, thank you guys! I appreciate the seeds a lot. Have I got the strains correct from the l.a and c.a seeds?

@Ashbash, Wow nice, now you make me very happy because I also use Biobizz haha. I still use the sensi cal/mag tho so I guess that have to go in the end. Haha me to Iám on day 35 today and seems like forever to go!! Happy growing! UncleGreen

@UncleGreen, Also, I harvested a little earlier than I should have I think, not much amber however it still does the job haha. Very impatient over here.

@UncleGreen, Hey bud, I'm happy you liked the vids! So, flushing. Tbh I think that flushing is a lot of bro science haha. I used organic nites (biobizz) which don't have any active chemicals, they simply feed the soil which in turn feed the plant. I've seen in a lot of sources that these are fine to feed up until harvest, so that's what I did. With chemical nutes I think that a flush may be beneficial, but you can never remove anything from the plant by flushing it, only stop more going in. I think flushing originally referred to when you pour loads and loads of water through the plant to clear salts from the soil, and found its way into everybody's grows. For chem nutes I would give plain water for a week or so, but never used myself so take that with a pinch of salt haha. I did see a paper on why it was pointless and that looked into the plant mechanisms but can't find it now unfortunately.

@Ashbash,fingers crossed 🤞

@BigDaddyK, Thanks bud. Yours looks nice again after that incident lol.

@LockDownGrow, Hey bud, I think the biggest thing is growing from seed will always have variations. Need a lot of time and inbreeding to make a strain stable. I've only experience with barneys and fastbuds, but these two I have here are absolutely spot on. The lemon smells like lemon and the zkittles smells like sweets. The stardawg I grew was really not up to par but I'll attribute that to my lack of experience. The barneys seeds were not as good as I was expecting so as I direct personal comparison I prefer fastbuds so far. Gonna try the tangerine dream again though, love the tangie :))) Happy growing mate, ill follow along

@bosgrower, Thanks for the input! I had a look around at others and it does look to be a tall plant haha. I'm gonna top this week and try keep it as low as possible. May not be able to though 😑
