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).

SmokingTiki Nothing to declare, all good!
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.
@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
