Amazing AutoFlowers

This week was more interesting than I would have liked. So week 1 begins again. Zkittles Auto by Fastbuds. Soils - 2 parts Fox Farm Ocean and 1 part Fox Farm Light Warrior and 1 Qt. extra well washed large perlite to each 3 gal pot. I like Fox Farm Ocean but I find it gets a bit hard (sets up) towards the end of the grow. And for some strains, I think it can be a bit hot. The Light Warrier cuts that a bit and helps keep the soil from compacting too much. Better drainage and aeration. Day 1 Dropped 2 into in PH adjusted (6.3) tap water afternoon of the 30th of Jan. Seeds opened and roots showing within 18 hours ( really fast ). Day 2 Planted the evening of Jan 31st. Used Azos as you can see in the pics. Misting with PH adjusted tap water (6.3) and Hydro Cal Magic. Day 3 Misting - I expect them to show later today or tomorrow. Day 5 They took a bit longer than I expected, but as of this morning (2/3/19) they are up. Still misting and will be for a few days. Day 7 Up and looking good - No pics for today.

Day 9 ( day 2 - week 2 ) Looking nice as the Pics show. No real changes this week other then no more misting. They are established enough to water. Still just with Cal Magic at PH 6.3. So far so good! 2/11/19 - Day 8 since sprouting Pics are the same day Looking good and growing well. She got her first feeding and a solid watering enough to flush out a bit. CalMagic full strength Nectar For The Gods - Medusa's Magic, Gaia Mania, and Zeus Juice all at 1/2 strength 2/17/19 Zkittles are officially 2 weeks old. Broke ground 14 days ago. Looking really good

Beginning of week 3. The ZKittles are looking good for 15 days. Had a full feeding yesterday, considering the growth overnight it looks like they liked it! Interested to see how much they grow this week. The end of week 3. the girls are 20 days old today. They got a watering with Azos and Molasses this morning. And the "water" on the plants is foliar spray. They are right at 6 inches tall as of this evening. They grew since I took the pictures this morning. Really happy. They just look great.

22 days since they sprouted. Got a full feeding today. They are looking great. Good color to the leaves. One is a bit taller than the other one is 8" and the other 7" (the one that came up 18 hours after the first) Will start to LST this week and maybe a slight defoliation, just to open them up to a bit more light. Longest branches are 4", maybe a bit more. Mar. 1st, 2019 - Just coming to the end of week 4. The plants are 26 days old. looking great. They got a watering with Azos and Mykos. Started to LST and just slight defoliation. They are about 10 to 11 inches tall now and growing pretty fast. They are also early flower, they go a last foliar spray today as well. Damn nice plants.

March 3rd, 2019. The plants are 28 days old today. Growing well. They are well in early flower now. Began LST and did just a small amount of defoliating. They had Azos mixed with Mykos on day 26, will probably feed tomorrow depending on moisture, if not the next day for sure. They just look great. March 8th, 2019 - 33 days old. Was a big grow week. Both plants doing great. They had a full feeding Tuesday and today they got a good solid flushing. They are starting to smell pretty good. If you look closely at the cola shot, you can just see Trichomes starting to form. Lord knows what they will look like in 4 weeks. About 16 to 17 inches tall, really heavy branches, leaves look great, nice beautiful green.

March 11th - 36 days old, the first day of week 6. Both plants are looking good, although their structure has really started to diverse. One is much more compact still about 16 inches and heavier as far as the leaves and branches etc. The buds are going to be dense and trichomes are really starting to show. The second pant looks more Sativa like. It is almost 20 inches tall with more spacing betweens nodes and the buds are not as dense. However, they both look quite healthy and are both are growing well. After the Flush last Friday, I wanted to set them up for feeding so they got Azos/Mykos as well as Liquinox (we have 0 Iron or Zinc in our water), Calimagic, Terpinator, and Molasses. This should set them up for the next full feeding in a couple of days.

Hey all, Well, it was a week of recovery form both myself and my plants. There will be a shout out to @earlsmeds in week 8's video. Bottom line, I now fully agree - No Azos or Mykos once flower begins. I wanted to try something I had not done before and it did not turn out the way I was hoping. I lost some valuable flowering time while I was doing a great job of starving my plants. However, all is not lost and this makes for a teachable moment, there will be harvest, just not the steller harvest I was looking for.

Hello Fellow Growers, Sorry to be posting week 8 during week 9 but it is what it is. All these pics and the video were shot on Saturday the 6th, the last day of week 8. They have actually recovered fairly well once they got a good feeding. No dought I lost some critical grow time. But from where they were heading to where they are today, was a pretty big rebound. If you watch the video (3 minutes), I explain the error of my ways. But I did learn something. The shorter, bushier of the 2 is finishing fast. You can see the amber in some of the Thricomes. The taller is several days to a week behind. The Trichomes are pretty much all milky and I don't want this one to go quite as far. From here out is it flush time. Should have some hanging plants to show by Saturday. Best to all!! So Week 9 is going to be harvest week. A bit earlier than it should be but I am sure I caused them to speed up since they were stressed, to say the least. The buds are really sticky, smell great and pretty strong now and especially in the taller plant the buds have taken on the Zkittle colors.

Was not my best grow. But the ZKittles by Fast Buds were strong, grew well and I am sure the next grow will be much different. I would have liked a bigger harvest, but I did learn from my experimenting with the feeding schedule. I will definitely be growing these again. Even with my getting off track the plants recovered quickly at a crucial time and produced some really nice buds. All in all, I'm happy
