😊First grow ever. FastBud's Blue Dream'atic.

👍 Set up: 100 x 100 cm Grow Tent 4" Inline Exhaust Fan 4" Carbon Filter 300mm HLG 240W Small Fan Seed Germination:

 1. Soak seeds in glass of water for 18 hours
 2. Put seeds in moist paper towel method for 30 hours
 3. Plant seeds in 3gallon pots 

I've had a good experience with FastBuds seeds so far with 10/10 seeds germinated via above method. In hindsight, should've planted seeds in soil after 24 hours in paper towel. At 30 hours the roots were starting to become too long.

 Two days later all 4 seedlings broke the surface. May 27 is day 1. Seedlings named Bd1, Bd2, Bd3, Bd4 for later reference. Only nutes used was Superbud White Root 1ml/L mixed into normal water schedule. I actually have no idea when to water 😵... just learning along the way and hope I'm not screwing it up. Lights are on about 60-75% of max power and are turned off for 6 hours during the day when it is hottest outside. Had some trouble with high humidity early on but lowering AC to 24C helped (on 24 hrs). Bd1 growth is stunted compared to the others and not sure why. Bd4 is starting to show the next set of leaves (Day 7) but is experiencing burnt tips on leaves. Trying to figure out if its nutrient burn or light burn. Overall quite happy with Week 1 and super excited for the weeks ahead!

Reference Picture : Day 14 - Bd4 One of my plants (Bd4) is showing burnt tips and leaves which are getting worse by the day. Please help take a look at the reference picture and give me advice on what's wrong with it? Light burn? Wind burn? Nutrient burn (from soil)? PH? Thanks

There could be a few issues. It seems like some overwatering could be going on. If you grow autos in their final pot size (I do) then it it's best to center water smaller amounts as the seedling cannot use up enough of the soil moisture and will stay soaked. This can mess up their ability to draw nutes and can literally drown the roots. It also looks like a little light burn could have happened, although I would expect all of them to be affected not just plant 4. Be careful about water droplets sitting on the seedlings after watering while your lights are left on, as it can act as a magnifier and cause light damage in rare cases. Good luck with the grow! They can all still turn out great :)

My first grow and I suck so I overwatered, too high temp, wrong PH for a couple weeks resulting in stunted and tiny plants. I'm just getting the hang of it this last few weeks. Will my stunted plants still able to produce potent buds even of small quantities? Thanks! 😄

The buds will probably be potent, but the quantities will be even less than you imagine... keep one to the end for the learning experience but use the space better by starting again. Think of your electricity bill over the whole : will it be worth 6grams of weed or more? I'm the type of guy that rather pay more but get more, and if i was you i would start again using all you've learned - the sooner the start the sooner the harvest, that's why it's important to use your grow room space wisely. Hope this helps ! 🚀

1) How to know when to stop the drying process and start curing? 2) For my harvest (since its stunted) the buds just wrap around the main stem... how do I break them apart to put into jars? Thanks! Really appreciate all your help :)

They are ready to cure when the stem snaps instead of just bends. In order to get the buds off the stem hold the bud upside down and work from the bottom. You will see where each individual bud attaches to the main stalk just cut them away from the stalk one at a time working your way up to the top. Nice looking buds you got there!!

Many people at plant shops know a lot about ganja growing. Each have their own soil and fertilizer formula. Ask in details and they will answer. First rule is not to let anybody know that you have ganja. So there are more people growing ganja than you think.

Hi, my comments on your week 2 burn. First, flush the one plant that is burnt with water for one or two days. Re-set things always work with burns. For the other seedlings that seemed okay, don't fix what ain't broken. In general, sativa will burn more easily than indica. Auto will burn more easily than regular. However, this depends on the data sheet. I think for Fastbuds Bluedream'matic is to use less fertilizer but water a bit more. Some people says use 1/4 strength. And feed lightly at beginning of after week 4. And it is not just about a strain. Each seed is different. Different characters are referred to as phenotypes. Each pheno grows differently. Some tall, some short. Feed differently, and smoke differently. Lighter green leave usually has more sativa mix in the gene. They are taller, slower, feed less, with less dense buds, and more high less relaxing afterward. If its set up issue, then all seedlings would displayed same sign. Philindicus told me that "less is more" with auto and I think it is true with fertilizer. What soil did you use? I killed one Wild Thailand Ryder by putting in 20% cow manure in my soil. RIP my sweet girl. Have you added fertilizer in your soil? What were in your fertilizer? I saw you put in Super Bud white root. No idea what it contains. I see some black stuff and pumice. Have you checked your pH? pH from run off water is more certain than stick the probe in. pH should be 6.0 to 6.5. Did you use microbes? Some microbes increase nitrogen up take. Additive - avoid rooting hormone. Don't use auxin / B1. I use auxin to promote root. And it stunted my auto once. Sea Weeds works really well for me. Avoid coconut water, banana flowers. I use coconut water and it stretched tall but not much leaves and buds. Do you have a light meter? How much light is needed depends on the strain. I think auto likes longer light hours with more blue. So, if intensity is not too much then just keep the light on for 20 hours. So, lots of fun until you get your formula for soil, fertilizer, light an so on for each strain. Auto are not natural plants. Actually, most cannabis strains are not natural. So, many things to do.

@pillowz, again I know how to screw up and can only tell what I did wrong. First soil - I tried mixed soil. Did not work for me. ดินก้ามปู + ปุ๋ยคอก too hot. And get muddy too quickly. I use peat moss - course grade ขอเบอร์หยาบๆ ไม่ต้องปรับความเป็น กรดก็ได้ to dilute soil . I mix then with with compost and worm caste for nutrients ปุ๋ยหมัก และมูลไส้เดือน and coconut chunk -1/2 the volume. เปลือกมะพร้าวสับเล็ก to get good air in the soil. After week 3 you can add cow manure. No more than one handful per week. After flowering- bat guano ทูลค้างคาว K เยอะดี one table spoon maximum - this can burn very strongly. Small amount of char แกลบเผา helps with microbes profile in the soil that help fight diseases and fix nitrogen. Suggest that you goggles on PGR cannabis. PGR are Plants Growth Regulators สารควบคุมการเจริญเติบโตพืช. Auxin is terrible for auto - เร่งรากฝอยแต่ทำให้แคระ Combination is better. Don’t ever use Gibberellins. Coconut water and banana flower น้ามะพร้าว ปลีกส้วย works for rice and grape but not ganja Seaweed- สาหร่ายสกัดเข้มข้น has combination of hormones and secondary nutrients as well as potassium. Comes in a bottle at various grade. Jatuchak has it. This is the shop near MRT entrance inside Chatuchak market. Or ask Or Tor Kor shop - not all has this. Use highest quality one. This works. I got started by recommendations from a Master grower in this community. And google one more topic. Molasses - กากน้ำตาล for cannabis growing. I buy molasses from Bangchak Green Market. Very organic way to have strong and great tasting buds. And please remember- too much of anything is bad. You plants are still young, still can recover. About cannabis plant size - don’t believe the size and yield the breeder put in. Plants will get that big in their light, temperature, humidity, expert care on fertilizer, hormones, insects prevention, disease prevention. I would see how other new growers do with the strain you like. Now I like photo period better than auto. That is because I grow out side and can not control the light and humidity.

@Med_in_Tropic, Thanks for all this great info. Seems to me it's a combination of nutrient burn and overwatering. For nutrient burn, only Bd1 is planted in cannabis-suitable soil. Since I calculated the soil amount wrong when purchasing and already germinated the seeds, I planted the other 3 seeds into ready-made soil with mixed in natural fertilizers (ดินโชกุน ผสมปุ๋ยคอก) that I had on-hand. Somehow Bd2 and Bd3 is doing fine in the same soil... may be fertilizers are all concentrated in Bd4 pot. I think Superbud White Root may be rooting hormone so I'll cut down on this to reduce nutes. I'm curious on how you apply seaweeds for this purpose? Is it a bottled solution? Thanks for all the advice. I hope my past screwups don't stunt the plant too much and can still get a decent growth. 👌

Thanks for sharing everything so detailed. I'm a first timer and learning a lot form your diary. At 14 days, my biggest sprout is at your 9 day mark, so expecting maybe 5g from my first yield. 😂 All so helpful. Glad to see your Amnesia grow was a major success. Very comforting knowing that's where progress takes you!

@kevzzz, I'm glad my diary was helpful for you :) It's hard to get it perfect on your first grow but every mistake will become a good lesson for your next batch. Try to nail down light, water, soil, and nutes on your first grow. It's ok to experiment a bit as well! Good luck with your grow~

Drying your buds. It depends on the humidity. I do mine at 50% humidity for the first 3 days to get rid of most of the moisture.then I raise the humidity to 55 to 60% to slow down the drying. Around day 5 I cut the buds off the main stem and place them in a teflon pan.Some of the smaller buds may be dry enough and can go into the jar. Leave the larger ones out for a other day or two. Use a small digital hygrometer inside the jar your goal is to get the humidity down to 62%. If the humidity is 65% or less you can just leave the top off the jar for a few hours everytime it exceeds 62-63%. If the humidity is 66% or higher take the buds out of the jar and put them in the teflon pan for several hours. Then repeat the whole process if needed. Once you reach a stable 62% open the jars once a day for the next week to let some fresh air in. The following week open the jars a couple of times. So one week to dry to 62%.Week 2 starts the curing phase. End of week 3 is a good time to test smoke. Week 4 your good to go. The smell and flavor with a longer cure of 6to 8 weeks improves and makes for a smoother smoke. Enjoy your harvest hope this helps.

@pillowz, yes krub. That is what the books say. It is difficult for me to count 20%. So I just go with all milky (ทึบแสงทั้งหมด). Some will be yellow naturally. More or less yellow depends on how you like your high, If laughing high is what you want - harvest early. If chill and sleep later, then wait until it is more yellow.

Stop all feeding. They are too young for any kind of nute. Also, they are growing slowly because since the pot is too big for the seedlings, you are over watering.

@@Athos, I read somewhere that autos should just plant into the final pot. Should I have started in a plastic cup and work my way up instead? Also, noted on the watering will take it easy from now. Thank you!

I think it is safe to feed her heavily with bloom/buds nutrient for one more week. At this stage she needs Potassium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, and Calcium. No growth hormone. Make sure that your nutes has all that. For me, I add molasses at this stage. For flushing: If you add bottled fertilizer and want to dry and bottle cure like normal, I would stop feeding on week 10. And water with plain water. Soft flush so to speak. I then would do a cleansing flush on week 11. Please note that I don't flush my plant. I keep feed them until almost to the very last day. I use water curing so there is no need. Water curing washes everything away. This includes the baddies like chlorophyll, starch, fertilizer. But good stuff like terpenes and most aroma are gone too. Some time, I cure normally, and I still don't flush. I dunk my flowers in a water bottle for about half a day (6-8 hours) to clean and then dry.

There are some soil moisture probes that you can stick in the pot to check moisture.
