I mixed pro mix hp with fox farm soil conditioner & Diametereous Earth and planted the seeds straight into the mix. I sprayed heavily and placed a humidity dome over until day 7. I sprayed the top layer of soil every 4 -6 hrs as needed to keep it moist. My plan is to let her grow until she’s ready for LST and the amend early in order for an automatic flush to happen. I added pics of the plants on day 8 to show the amount of growth I’ve had over just a couple of days. Amazing genetics! Can’t wait for this one to start flowering !

Recharge 1.3 mll
Very Rapid Growth over last 3 days. Almost doubled in size from day 7 to day 10. On day 14 I mixed up a gallon of recharge and watered each plant in my garden. It says to expect noticeable results in 2-3 days so let’s see how effective this instant compost tea will be. I am very confident in this product so I hope it lives up to the hype. Highly impressed with these Fastbuds genetics. I have figured out my overall strategy with these autos. Pretty much let them grow until you can start tying branches down to even out the structure of the plant causing the least amount of stress as possible. Only defoilate early if the fan leaf/sugar leaf is obstructing a bud site. Take off all xl fan leaves in week 1 of Flower and continue this process until harvest leaving only the sugar leaves remaining the last week of harvest. This has to be done gradually or you will cause way more harm than any of the benefits to be had. If in doubt leave it alone. In the beginning most new growers do way too much of everything and a lot of the time you are doing more harm than good. Feed n water your plant and it will tell you what it needs if you know what to look for. Do research. YouTube is amazing. Day 20: I defoliated large fan leaves that had outgrown the plant and were covering up most of the lower canopy. Recharge is now part of my weekly routine. It is worth every penny !

I started some low stress training this week and continued with Recharge and Big Bloom with cal mag every other watering. Seed 2 is a little behind the other two so I’m pretty much leaving it alone and letting it grow however it wants for the time being. I’m still in the early stages of growing so I’m focused on figuring out the best method for me…that’s why you will see different things done to different plants throughout my diaries. Fast growth ! Lots of bud sites appearing and the basic structure of this strain is great for the LST method. Very excited for this strain to begin the flowering stage. Will top dress with dr earth 4-4-4 and 3-9-3 within the next couple of days and that will take me on out to my harvest date. Dr earth dry nutes are an awesome way to grow with ease and their products are amazing.

I added Bud Candy to my weekly routine this week and did some minor LST again plus some major defoliation that will take me into the flowering stage. Now, I will leave them alone and just let them perform their stretch before I do anymore LST training which will usually be the entire 2nd week of full flower. This strain is definitely shaping up to be a huge plant and I’m excited to see them begin their final push.

Great strain ! Very good structure all the way through flowering. Lots of low stress training and defoliation! Two are in the first week of flower and the other is in pre flower. All will be huge plants.

This strain grows tones of thick fan leaves throughout the entire plant so I am defoliating a lot but I’m doing it in stages. So far it’s all are doing very well and loving life. Huge thick talk and bushy plants. This is definitely going to be a great yield between the three plants.

Slight defoliation on all 3 plants to take me into full flowering stage. Stepped up feeding to 1150 ppm avg with Fox farm trio and water soluble bloom boosters. Cal mag and bulletproof si along with Bud Candy from Advanced Nutrients. Very nice strain from Fastbuds. Very big thick structured Indica dominant with purple already showing in 2 of 3 plants. The 3rd plant is just now beginning to flower and it seems to be catching up slowly with the others. Very fast strain ! So far right on schedule with timeframe from Fastbuds.

This Strain has been a pleasure to grow. Great structure from beginning to end. I suggest a silica additive and a lot of defoliation at selected times as needed all the way through will help keep this beauty looking like the champion she is. Honestly,I was a little skeptical about all the hype this strain was getting but I clearly understand why now. This strain is a must for anyone that enjoys growing. Very dense purple with hues of a dark orange - red - magenta colored golfball sized buds for the majority of the plant and popcorn sized buds forming at the bottom. All are great quality ! Also Highly recommend Low Stress Training….especially when entering the bloom phase. Love Love Love this strain and there will definitely be more diaries of this strain in my collection in the future.

Just harvested the other two. This one was not in the best conditions as far as light and space so this one is running behind. Still…the buds are very dense and colorful and they are growing fast now that they are in better conditions. Just started to flush its ph water from here on out.
