Welcome to my Fast Buds sponsored shootout and living organic soil v coco side by side. I also plan to use this grow to my full advantage regarding a few age old nagging questions about methods. I have had a keen interest in L.O.S ( supersoil) since reading a few threads a while back on how amazing and productive it can be. After too much research and procrastinating I had to give it a go. I have been a decades coco/nft grower and recently threw my hat in the rdwc ring too. I have avoided soil due to the overwatering worry ( heavy handed chimp brain !) and the best potting soil/feeds. Catching up on the advances in indoor soil gardening and organics led me too subcools supersoil recipes to name a few but being a town dweller with farms everywhere around me still drew blanks on a lot of the ingredients needed and where the hell I could even begin to get them from. Thankfully , commercial savvy has now made buying it in ready to use and with a full range of beneficial bacteria ect available in amendments from a grow shop here in the uk. ecothrive have realised the potential for us to dive into this medium with all the mixing , measuring and resourcing. I bit the bullet and Β£150 later I now have 4 x37Litre pots that will be used for as long as I want to feed the soil for without EVER needing nutrients again potentially. The coco has also had charge mixed in to encourage the bennies to colonize there too. I will be using the shogun nutes that I know do the business with coco to compare with for yield , growth and taste. I have 3 seeds each of 4 Fast Buds Strains to use as a control for the grow and am journaling each strain in their own diaries. This statement will be used to start each one as the information is identical at this point but following this I will do them individually. I am now starting their second week since opening the seed packets , straight into soaked and shook root riot cubes and into the heated propagator. They had all showed their heads by end of day 3 and a couple needed helmet surgery to open up without being hindered . I have has them in the prop for a few days but they needed to get settled as they were popping roots out all over the cubes. They have now been in their final pots for 2 days complete and starting their 3rd today at day 8 since planting in cubes. I am impressed with the speed and success of these girls already (12 of 13 germinated) . Well done fast buds. So here we go folks , any comments , ideas ,questions , advice are always welcome and I hope we can have some fun experimenting with defol v non defol , topping v fimming v bending and any other curiosities along the way. I plan on using a quadline for them all to keep a control for the comparisons too. Be green folks Welcome aboard and a huge thank you to Fast Buds for the opportunity to try autos.

Looking so sweet! I can't wait until mine finish up. Check out my current diary. I also, use MegaCrop , although I'm currently transitioning to soil and soil amemndments. I have had great success with MC (see past diaries). I also add Sweet Candy, Bud Explosion and Gravitron (a must have for bud density). I have 2 Lemon AK I'm currently growing with MC. Happy Growing. Peace. @BillMonroe

@Smowkabowl,I am sure that the shogun dragon force is the same thing as gravitron. It finishes them with a boost and hardens the buds too used to beba product called rock resinator too the did similar i think .

@Smowkabowl,will go check it out. I have v3 of the mc which greenleaf are saying contains ALL their additives now.I know they are currently attempting to release a new batch that has been ground up to deal with the calcium ball issues.( never bothered me to crush them and mix in, no worries.) The v3 or 2.5 ? has their B.E in it too from what I read

Looking good GGD! I'm quite interested in the megacrop.
Ganjagrandaddy
Ganjagrandaddy
@BillMonroe,It is well suited to all mediums mate. ( I sound like a rep now .lol ) Never smelled anything like it though but it is totally vegan so zero animal products either. perfect for consumption in edibles for them too. It has so much in it and the NPK is perfectly balanced with a flowering boost and their amendments. They have released this latest batch with everything they do in one mix to use throughout the grow and you just increase amounts dependant on cycle. It doesnt clog drippers as there are no salts to build up either. Never had the green colour so perfect before this was used. The cost is a bonus compared to the ability of this stuff.

@Ganjagrandaddy, Haha, love that review my friend! :) I agree, it is the way forward. I am really against the bottled nutrients - overpriced crap. I'd been looking at some hydroponic recipes and raw ingredients, but instead of reinventing the wheel I could just use something like this.

@BillMonroe,Thanks Bill. I cannot say enough positives about the megacrop. I am so sold now. it is amazing stuff and greens the plants up with so much usable chlorophyll. One part mixing in really small amounts too. 1g per L. a bag will last me years. Get on it mate and if your not impressed I will post a naked pic with a bud and stalk poking out my butt , that's how confident I am in it.lol It is storming crops worldwide and without a doubt a very real breakthrough in our needs as growers. The costs per crop are seriously low for it and with no water to pay for ect

Woooow Dude ! I don't realized you grown the Blackberry from fastbuds too ! She look sooo nice ! Having such result would be like a dream to me :) "It even burn purple" ahahahahha. Well, i'm so impatient to do the same. Push the lighter button, create a flame... and experience smoking my own buds. This is making me more even impatient ahahah. Anyway, well done, amazing.

@PurpleWorship,Thanks Peter. They were berry tasting too. such a different exp from usual tasting strains. they look so damn good too. shame to burn them up lol. Good luck
Ganjagrandaddy
Ganjagrandaddy
@PurpleWorship,They do stay purple throughout the smoke too. taste of berries very strong.Not the strongest hit on the high bit a nice daytime social.smoker with some interesting colours to talk about while rolling. Their LSD25 was even more glorious looking and looked like a movie prop from a 60's hippy film. wow. Do love fast buds. great breeder and their upcoming Fast flowering photoperiods are going to be a show stopper too. good.luck and enjoy buddy

Hi there grandaddy - I was looking around for the living organic soil (the Eco-Life as used here) Out of stock everywhere - must be good stuff Can you recommend an alternative? These look great, and your other 3 grows too One of my blueberry's will be finished in about a week I think Never grown anything before - I like autos, very determined little plants
Ganjagrandaddy
Ganjagrandaddy
@LordAzrael,there is also subcools soil that can be bought too along with others. I will send a link on you grow to a company that provide ecothrive with " soil for life ". https://www.ecothrive.co.uk/ https://www.indoororganics.co.uk/ hope not breaking any rules for the tag admin ?.

Woah! On day 55! The blackberry looks really on point in a few diaries I've seen. What a speed difference between this one and the dreamatic for example
Ganjagrandaddy
Ganjagrandaddy
@BillMonroe, I expected a faster harvest from them when I got them but never the speed at the rate they grew buds. even the Lsd-25 has shocked me the same. I thought it would be like the Bluedreamatic and smoothie. Each day passing is killing me waiting for the ambers. lots of sugar looking trichs but waiting on the ambering to get underway for them. They were a 56 day finish supposedly but an extra week means a little more weight and oil . hopefully only days away now from trim jail. lol
