SmokingTiki Welcome to the Smoking Tiki's hut!
For this grow, I'm using some of the seeds I won at a contest from last year. I kept the seeds in my fridge door during one year. It worked very well because all the seeds successfully germinated after 48h! π I used 3x3 seeds and selected the ones with the biggest roots to put them in the soil.
It's the first time I grow some Fast Buds Auto under a light and in a controlled environement, I'm really curious to see how it turns out! This time I decided to change my grow type compared to the previous years. I will let the plants grow naturally (no topping or LST) and will try to get some big main colas. I also reduced the pots size from 26l to 7,5l to limit the growth. The idea is to have less work and less weed because I already have more than I can smoke.
My set-up:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Mars Hydro TSW2000 (300W).
- Mars Hydro fan (9W)
- Greenmigo dehumidifier (155W).
- Compo Sana universal soil (1x40l)
- Timer
- Weather station + pH meter
Have a nice journey through my grow diary!

SmokingTiki Looks good! I started to use some nutrients and already saw some roots at the bottom of the pots π
I added my halloweed photos here because with the new photo limit on GrowDiaries, I cannot add them to the original diary (Ξ Fast Buds FF).

I took the pictures on the 6th day of the week instead of the 7th because I was not at home.

SmokingTiki The first pistils appeared this week and I think the plants slowly transition to the flowering phase. The Mimosa Cake seems to struggle a bit, it looks like nitrogen toxicity as usual with this soil. It should solve by itself, wait and see.
They look a bit floppy on the pictures but I think they were just a bit thirsty. It's my first time growing under a light in such small pots so I need to learn and adjust my watering schedule.

SmokingTiki The plants recovered pretty well from last week and doubled their sizes! I should have started the flowering nutrients one week earlier because they suffered a bit of that. Especially the Mimosa Cake that is now way less developped then the two others.
The temperature rised-up because the light is now at 100% of its power. I also need to water every day now.

SmokingTiki This is the last week! I stopped the nutrients and already harvested the Lemon Cherry Cookies. I will harvest the other ones in the next days.
Very nice plant! I had a great harvest and I'm so happy to finally have some purple weed

SmokingTiki - The trichomes photos have been taken just before the harvest.
- Drying was made at 20Β°C and around 50% of humidity (4 days).
- Curing done with humidity in jar between 50-60%, temperature around 20Β°C (2 weeks).
Pot size : 7,5l
It's my first time using "DryFerm" bags. I tried them on a few buds. There is no difference between the buds cured in the jar and the buds dried in the DryFem bag. The buds' aspect is the same, no mold, same odor (maybe a bit stronger with the one cured in jar but nothing significant). I was a bit skeptical to put them in a plastic bag but it turned out really nice!
Glad they are recovering. Autos can be such divas. Iβm currently dealing with 2 seedlings that are struggling a bit and might be the soil being a bit too hot for the one strain specifically.
@zeeto, All the plants are different. From my short experience, they can grow very differently within the same grow conditions and they can give you nice buds with a bad start and vice versa. I don't worry too much anymore now π
