Well week 3 down and the only problem I've seen was the leaves curling a bit on the 2 smaller plants. I've also noticed the five finger leaves are kinda to small for there spacing on each finger.
I'm wondering how well the cfl do on an auto.The only other grow was with few bags seed that I vegged in the house and moved outside and we're stolen a few weeks later.
Running 13, 23 watt cfl's atm.
The new picks are 4 days later and I feed them again
3 ml grow
2 ml micro
1 ml bloom
It all started well but feed to early and was short cal mag and ph up, down and a meter.
The tallest was 30 inch and the shortest was 12.They started to purple a little in the buds during week 9.
Overall I got about 30 to 40 grams a plant.
Next grow I have 5 pineapple express and crystal meth.
The buds smelled so cookie like an all and all it turned out ok compared to the weed around cape breton.
My next run should be a lot better.
2 - 450 watt meizhi led panels(200 true watts each) ph meter, ppm meter, gh grow, micro, Kool bloom.
Thanx fast buds for my first auto grow and many to come.
The smoke was very smooth and tasty.The smell of the plants wasn't strong at all during the grow.
If I could go back and tell myself about this grow from the future what would I have changed with the money I had at the time
1. Buy Cal-mag and bloom
2. Don't feed for the first month
3. Tag each pot the day they popped outta the soil.
4. Feed and watered on there dates that popped not everyone the same day
5. Picked one plant to smoke after 2 months not pick off em all.
6. A ph meter and ph up and down
7. I could have saved money by ordering broken down nutrients from eBay and for all you ppl reading this just call the number and provided and take the order over the phone.I got a free bottle for the price of 3 if I had of ordered it online and they will break down anything they have on hand into 8$ 8 Oz bottles.
@FAST_BUDS, I was wondering you procedure for germination. I use paper towel/zip lock bag.My stardawg never popped on this grow and my crystal meth on this one popped and sprouted in 3 day from towel to soil.I have 5 pineapple express and they popped and had a 3 ml tail after 6 days.I put them in the soil but I fear they won't come up bc of the slow germination.
I'm open to your suggestions.
I know me and everyone are upset about delivery time to canada from Spain (4 weeks) and wondering if it possible to become a canada distributor to make it easier and faster to supply your seed to canadian growers
I was thinking like a fastbuds canada and I ship out all your canadian orders..
Edit: They all came up.Just worried being broke and having such a long wait for new orders.
They went in the soil on the 31th of Oct. The first Girl Scout popped up the next day and eash one showed up each day. Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs, Fri. Sad to say the stardawg never came up 😢 but it was the free gift so i still got what i paid for.
Hi I have noticed some major flaws in this grow , I think you know the ph was out and probably roots were poor , don't listen to all these crazy people who say below 6.5 is right , it might also be the light as I found CFL s to be very low intensity, and so buds had to be close which in turn made them too hot ,
It's all a learning curve, but here it is - treating seeds with care , never transplant auto flowers , bigger pot = bigger plant , bigger light = bigger plant , let tap water stand for 24hrs , ph after you've added nutrients, don't get too wet in too often soil let them dry out , above all learn from each grow - good luck with the next one 😏
@Macgyver, if it's not much inconvenience, could you complete the strain evaluation profile, please? You just need to fill in the 1-10 stars strain rating in the harvests page. Thank you much and congrats for your beautiful grow.
@BigDaddyK, I've order ph up ph down, cal mag, Kool bloom, I'm not gonna use gro in my next grow.i have a ppm and ph meter comming, a 60x scope for pictures.im gonna be growing pineapple express and I'm gonna add more perlite to the mix.at 9 weeks the buds are nice would have been better if there were leaves left on the plants lol but I'd say I got at least 40 grams a plant average.
PH is super important you will find that you might not use the cal mag if the ph is 6.5 - also when you get the ppm meter , check the water on its own and see - if it's over 300 you probably don't need calcium as your water is hard - good luck 😉
Secret to big plants is big roots - use some rhiztonic in the first 5 weeks (canna )
Hi @Macgyver, first of all thanks for sharing your grow!
About germination, we suggest to do it in a glass with water and in less than 48h are ready to pot. Over the 18 hours they have usually cracked and are ready in less than the 48h. This is our own experience. We do like the paper towel method but we prefer this one.
About the distribution enquiry, would you mind sending us an email to info@2fast4buds.com with a bit more info of your idea, please?
Thank you! Keep rocking and improving!

@Macgyver, I hear that bro i had to run through my first grow in a similar situation. Didn't really know own what I was getting into I suppose. BTW after some research and purchasing some quality products, my second run is a large improvement from my first. Trial and error bro, i think is the best way to learn. Congrats on making it so far and keep pushing through it. Your next run will be much improved. Still pretty good. Heres to a strong finish bro 🌱🍁💨
@Sumgrower420, I was short cal-mag a ph meter and ph up and down and had some serious issues.I had to defoliate almost all fan leaves bc they just fell off from yellowing.The only leaves really on the plants are sugar leaves The main stems have turned red and purple and hoping the worst is now behind me.
I've ordered pineapple express a week ago and have been trying to place another order with you but the problem I mention 2 months ago happened again with you online credit card payment with gift cards but I would like to send my regards to fast buds.i was short cal mag and proper ph.I feed to early and these girls still powered through the stress.banging bud at 8 weeks.
"I'll smoke it with you bro, will got to the loonies bin together I don't give a fuck"
