Well this is my 2nd attempt at growing, this is a strain I'm really pumped for having a go at, and excited to check out fastbuds! I've read alot of great things and seen many fantastic diaries on GD and they also have some of my favourite strains! (3 BlackBerry to run after) 😗 I am running x 3 gorilla glue auto - 15 ltr fabric breathable pots - cana terra processional medium - bio bizz nute range - 120x120x180 grow tent - early stages will use a 600w led which isn't to powerful, and swap to mars hydro reflector 1000w into vegging -carbon filter / clip fans I have minimal growing experience apart from the 7 plants I ran last time, which werent the greatest of success however finished healthy and smokeable which was good enough for me :)! This time round I aim to manage the mistakes I made last time, over watering, understanding nutes more this time round. Any help is greatly appreicated as im still learning. I have previously used the paper towel method and had success, I'm going to follow fastbuds guide with a 72 hour soak in water/darkness. From here I will place into their final pots, I think in future I will start them in cups and repot when more structured! I ended up switching up the plan due to heat n humidity issues at the moment, germinated in paper towels damp afterthe soak this time i put in plastic sandwich bags and wow they really make the difference! I think ill do this from here on out! Side note - strongest seeds out of all ive poped to date. Really impressed how fast and well they came along in such a short time! Placed root down into small starter pots and into a dome for humidity, until they hopefully sproute then will removed the dome as i read its no good after they break the surface? Is this true? One this I didn't do previously was go through the soil by hand and refine it so i will make sure to do this when going into final pots :) Day 7 - lil ladies have came along well, been spraying them 3 times a day keeping RH high, going to repot this time next week! Have just been providing phed water no nutes End week 1 :)

Onto week 2 - pictures above are all from day 14, First time repotting - provided the soil with a good watering and left in grow tent in the small containers for 2-3 hours to let the soil dry and to firm up so when repotting i didnt have the soil crumble - this seemed to work a treat and made it really hassle free! - great tip i read online. - for a new grower this is great advice/help! I have now potted them into their final containers - 15ltr - see week one for all details on medium. The following day i have checked and they have all taken very well to the repotting none showing and signs of problems and since have seen great signs of growth - I have just been providing Ph'ed water and plan to add some nutes over the next week or two! I am really impressed with this strain and its genetics from the start, and cant wait to see how it progresses over the next upcoming weeks! Still yet to decide if i am going to LST or just let them do their own thing. Have been keeping the soil nice and moist not letting it dry out - Have purchased a 5ltr Pump sprayer which is normally used for gardening / weed killer etc - i have found its a godsend, easy to carry/move - releases the water in a spraying motion making it evenly distributed to the plants and it has a long, thin nossle on it which makes getting around the grow tent no effort - absolutely no worry of dropping or damaging a plant now with a watering can! RH - 60-70 which im happy with for the current stage Have them now running under 1000w marshydro on veg stage - will flip to flowering down the line, this is my new light and im really impressed with it so far, cant wait to see it in full power flower mode!

I’m doing a second WWA grow. I still had 11 seeds. I’m going to Gorilla Glue auto strain next for sure. Good choice!
