Smoothie Auto 2Fast4Buds organic grow

Week 3, concluding the third week of vegetating: Hi(gh) guys! End of week three, and this is where i can start to see the differences between photoperiod strains and Fastbuds Smoothie Auto. Looking back at the GoldBar, who started 7 weeks earlier, at this same point in time they look much different. In the same week they were transplanted into the 18 liter pots and at that point I was removing very small offshoots (axillary buds) from the nodes of unwanted leaf-sets, and sparing the upper ones. The axillary offshoots from the Smoothies are much farther at this point, forming actual small branches, and besides pinching them from the Smoothie Auto is not very smart anyway. This week they really kicked into growing, and I think next week there is going to be massive progress, looking at the rate their growing now. Still hard to believe that in two weeks’ time flowering is going to kick in. I decided on topping the two plants who are going to move to the upper part of the tent, and the one Smoothie that’s going to join the GoldBar’s can just keep growing. If space is going to be an issue I can use some LST on them. Last Sunday I’d made a container of nutrient mix with a mild dose of OGL, just 0,7 ml. Today they got their first dose of 250ml with 2 ml OGL. Next week I’m going to continue with 2ml’s if they react good on it, and then it’s just another two weeks of growing, ending with 3ml’s OGL before switching to OBL. In less than a week time I should also add Fast Buds, only I’m still out. The upcoming week I’m starting with Big Fruits also. I’m looking forward to see you back and check on the Smoothie Auto’s progress next week! Grtz, Budcrack ;-)
