Going to run 6 different fast buds strains this time.Dropped the seeds in the water and now a wait for the tap roots.One of the seeds is from Papaya cookies last run I found a single perfect seed and hopefully she grows as strong like the plant she come from :).
Germinated all seeds in RO water at room temps for 24 hours and gave a little tap with a spoon and they fell to the bottom.I left them in the dark in water for 48 hours total and placed them in a warm wet paper towel in a sealed container for 24 hours.The seeds all developed nice tap roots 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch long and I planted in 5 gal pots.Using a 3 inch layer of fox farm ocean forest on the bottom and the top layer is Pro Mix.
Well I have 6 little seedlings that sprouted looking happy and healthy.Going to give just plain water once the pots dry up a bit more.Ill add Gaia green 4,4,4 top dressing with a shot of recharge in a few days after these seedlings are stronger.Se7000 set at 30 percent power and is raised to the ceiling.I prefer to do this over lowering the lights and intensity and not being able to walk around and work in the ⛺️.Day 4 added a 1 inch layer of farm farm ocean forest and I’ll water plain ph tap water when the pots are dry.Also placed some pins and anchors to tie down branches for when the girls are ready for training :)
The girls are moving along nicely just watering with water ph to 6.4 this week as I top dressed with Gaia green 4-4-4.Spider farmer Se7000 dialed in at 30 percent and to the ceiling.Noticed some minor deficiencies Day 12 and check soil slurry 50/50 soil/water and the ppm was at 780 lil high at this early stage and the culprit.Going to work on lowering that a bit this week.I did add a top layer of fox farm ocean forest as well which runs a little hot with nutrients rather than the pro mix.I have to remember with these beautiful auto flowers less is better :)
Day 15 and things are rolling right along.Ive just been giving ph water until the pots are dry.Noticing a lot of growth last few days and they are looking good.Ive decided to go from the 24 hour straight to 20 hours on 4 off light schedule.I have never really noticed much of a difference with auto flower from 18/6,20/4,and 24 hours on the light schedule.I think it is best for the equipment to give them a short rest time.I do like the consistency of the environment with 24 hours during the winter time though :)
These girls are taking off like a 🚀.Day 21 I’ve noticed all really healthy strong plants with min stretch as I now have the SE7000 set at 50 percent.So I did some LST and I expect to see some really good growth this week 🔥
I’ve seen some amazing veg growth this week.These beautiful girls have been getting some LST all week and have developed lots of new colas.I have been watering around every 3-4 days plain water last two waterings so recharge will be added when the pots are dry.They have done extremely well taking in the Gaia green 4-4-4 and have huge fan leaves.
Day 32 These girls are still showing lot of growth and I noticed the first sign of flower development with the Lemon cherry cookies.I top dressed with Gaia green 4-4-4 1 tbs and 3 tbs of Gaia green power bloom.Rubbed gently in the soil and watered with recharge tea.Spider farmer Se7000 dialed in at 50 percent and I leave it there for another week or so.I have not done any defoliation but they really need it as they are getting really bushy.
Day 35 and things are moving along fantastic and all the girls are very happy.I typically wouldn’t run so many different strains in one tent but Fast Buds genetics are very versatile.I can already tell these girls will have strong,amazing buds in the upcoming weeks into Christmas 🎄😊
Day 42 and things are moving along awesome.Ive seen a huge stretch in the past week the strawberry pie is 3 feet tall.Watering more frequently these girls have been very thirsty and growing well.Top dressed with 4 tbs of Gaia green power bloom and watered with 1/2 tsp of Recharge.Increased light intensity to 60 percent power today as well.
Day 46 I cleaned out the tent and gave the girls a haircut to allow some airflow.Also decorated a lil for Christmas
Day 49 smells amazing anywhere near the tent. I have done a ton of defoliation to allow some more air flow and added another small fan and also a dehumidifier.Going to drop humidity to 55 percent and I have increased the light intensity to 70 percent power.These girls have been very thirsty and drinking around a half a gallon of water every 24-48 hours.
Day 50 I added a 4 inch inline fan to add some cool air from outside the tent to help cool things down a bit.Got some curl on some of the fan leaves which it’s time for more of them to go.Buds are starting to develop nicely and I added a dose of Plagron green sensation and a dose of cal mag in tonight’s watering.
Things are moving along great.The buds are developing and smelling absolutely amazing.Cherry cola won’t be a big producer but wow is her scent potent.The Lemon cherry cookies having the biggest buds so far and will finish first but still needs some time.Ive increased light intensity to 80 percent which kinda fried the fan leaves but no longer needed at this point.
Lemon cherry cookies,Cherry cola and Ztrawberriez are all getting closer to harvest.They are still drinking heavy and trichomes are almost all cloudy on the 3.I still have a lot more time left with Strawberry pie,Papaya cookies,and Pound cake which they are all starting to show some maturity.
Trichomes are all cloudy and still seeing some bud growth so I’ll let them go a few more days.Im going to wait for the strawberry pie to get maybe 20 percent amber it’s heavy on the indica side :)
Jan-9-2025 So I decided to harvest lemon cherry cookies,Ztrawberriez,and Cherry cola.The Papaya cookies,Strawberry pie,and Pound cake are still going strong as they need some more time maybe another week or two before they are ready.
Strawberry 🥧 I feel like her milky trichomes were starting to turn a little amber on some of the more mature buds so I chopped her down.Indica dominant strain so I wanted to let her go as long as possible.Smells great I’ll update a smoke report after she dries and cures.I think I’m going to use the majority of this one for some Rick Simpson oil and see how she turns out :)
